Any help would be appreciated I spent 9 hours in A&E three weeks back after a night of constipation and vomiting they told me in the end after running the various tests ultra sound bloods x-ray and urine that I needed to have my gallbladder removed and they would be in touch shortly and arrange an appointment and planned to carry out a test for gluten intolerance and also perform a Colonoscopy. Among my symptoms are bloating constipation indigestion and tenderness on the upper right had side of my tummy no great pain as of yet just sore to touch when I am having an attack, I have been desperately trying to tone up after the winter overeating and neglecting my daily exercise a bit. I started back 12 weeks back eating healthily and exercising as usual but the weight seems to not want to shift from my tummy lower abdominal area like it normally does, I'm at a loss on how to shift this and stay healthy and stop attacks from my gallbladder any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks’

My gallbladder is playing up
Thank's for all the replies, 
x much appreciated
Hi, two years ago I donated a kidney and during the months of health checks to make sure I was healthy enough they found I had gall stones. They give me some grief now and again and wow does it hurt, but if I lay off eating late, then it stays away.
That's what I'm thinking maybe there is a way around this and should removal be the answer as when they took my thyroid i ended up with other issues that they neglected to mention beforehand bone density etc...
It’s really worth trying alternatives before resorting to surgery. My daughter had her gall bladder taken out and she still gets problems. You could try buscopan,she said that’s the only thing that seems to work for her
Yes from what i have been reading many people still suffer after removal, confused as to what to do especially if i am saying no to something that really need sorting as I'm no expert either, thank you for your advice much appreciated Archie43
Hi Tess_Lass, just as one example if you look at this latest research care.diabetesjournals.org/c... you will see the clear link between the fats (esp saturated) you eat and chronic illness. Saturated fats are in animal foods, so the best approach, imo, unequivocally is to reduce your intake of animal products from your diet.
I would recommend you replace these by whole foods such as dark leafy greens and beans/pulses. The more your diet moves in that direction the easier it will be to lose weight naturally and easily, without calorie counting but with full confidence your getting a nutritionally complete diet.
April is IBS Awareness Month so what foods do you see as triggers for IBS?
