I can explain a little. Rapid weight loss can cause problems with the gallbladder. It can develop stones and/or sludge, or it could be neither and it just quits functioning like its suppose to. Symptoms can be painful right upper quadrant abdomen after eating fatty/spicy foods. Sometimes it doesn't even have to be a specific food. The pain can shoot straight through to the back, sometimes will cause the right shoulder/neck to feel sore. can feel like intense heart burn. The best part about it though, is people can live without the gallbladder and its a fairly easy organ to get rid of.

So, what I would do is #1. Call the doctor

#2. Get an ultrasound (ct does NOT show the gallbladder well enough

for it to be diagnostic. Unless you have a huge stone that they

could see, ultrasound is the best.

#3. If the ultrasound is negative, do a nuclear medicine study with an

ejection fraction . Thats what tests the function.

Hope you get better soon!
