    I went through 6 months of constant pain while all the tests (but 1) came back completely normal.

    Had my gallbladder removed after a second opinion and I had chronic gallbladder disease and 10 small stones that didn't appear on any scans.

    I don't know Katie. I've been going through it myself for the past 8 1/2 months. I'm going to my GI doctor tomorrow to let her know whats been going on. It used to be fuul blown nausea. Then it went to a bad queesiness. Now it seems to be a lighter version. I know alot of people on here have said that they will be ok & then it comes back. I'm praying that I'm coming to the end of it but only God knows.

      Hi sarah

      I have had loads of tests done my gallbladder function came back at 35% they are saying it is the lining that gets inflamed which causes pain and sickness etc.

      I see my surgeon again in March but obviously got to wait until then in agony qmd on the strongest pain relief.

      Diet wise I am under a dietitian but I no to stay away from fatty foods and to try and eat little and often but everything is a struggle and is starting to make me low in mood with been in constant pain

      Thanks for your prayers

    You need to go on a gallbladder diet...limit meat intake, lots of fresh fruits and vegetbales, healthy fats only.  Eat lots of beets.  You need to thin the bile. Castor oil packs also help.
