Hi,

Had my first severe GB attack last November. Last a few hours. Got ultrasound to confirm gall stones. Have had a handful of bad attacks but cleaned up diet some and been managing it pretty well. Over last couple months attacks have been more common but mild. I've thwarted them with a couple ibuprofens and a hot shower. Just a few days ago, after a barbeque, I developed some mild dull sensation in GB area that occasionally is mildly painful. I've been eating very low fat since but remains and does tend to worsen after meals.

Has anyone else experienced this phase? What does it mean? I've been putting off surgery but thinking that I need to revisit the idea.
