This time I have had gallstones along with severe depression. I have got it into my head that I have cancer of the gallbladder and can't stop the anxiety. I have pains all over my abdomin it is drive me crazy. An ultra sound scan only confirmed gallstones, but I feel I am living with a time bomb. I have been tempted to ask for more test but the view of my GP and phycologist is that this just drives the depression and anxiety deeper. Has anyone any experience of a similar issue. I would really value any help. Ian

I forgot to ask if you are having your gallbladder removed. When I had my first attack my GP sent me to the hospital straight away and I was given my first operation date within 6 weeks. How would you feel about having the operation? When I saw the consultant the main things I focused on we're all the things that could go wrong! I was convinced I wouldn't wake up or that they would cut my bowel by mistake! All of these thoughts were totally irrational and none of them were true. At the time I wasn't able to challenge the thoughts successfully which I regret in hindsight. I hope you are able to move forward from this. June
