It could be your gallbladder...do you still have it?

[kimmiethomason1 11]

Yes I still have it.

It could be your gallbladder, but I had a similar pain and it ended up being bad Constipation. You don't realize how little you go since you eat so little now, but it's good to cleanse every now and then to make sure things empty out, sometimes it gets trapped up there. I was afraid of gallbladder issues so I drink those chinese teas that keep the stones emptying out just to be safe. If you want to be safe, do an apple cider vinegar and olive oil mixture and it'll wash out stones.

I'm gonna say gall bladder. Very common with weight loss.

If it's upper right, it's likely gallbladder, but if it's upper left it might be a gastric ulcer. Either way sounds like it needs to be checked out.

I'm 5 months post op and ended up in ER the other night for severe upper right abdominal pain. Got the call from my surgeon today confirming lots of stones and sludge. Surgery in 2 weeks.
