It’s time to rewrite the chapter concerning what qualifies as a gallbladder symptom. I’ve felt almost this exact way for a really long time...the weird feelings in my feet. The vomiting. The bloating. The feeling that something is really wrong is so scary, and being told you’re just depressed is so discouraging. I just met with a surgeon today. I have a 2.6 cm gallstone stuck in the neck of my gallbladder. The crazy thing is it was discovered on accident while I was having a sonogram for something else.
Wow! Talk about a miracle! I'm so glad that they found it before anything major happened, even by "accident." It's amazing the damage that little organ can do. God was totally looking out for you! I agree, they do need to rewrite gallbladder symptoms. They could even add them in as atypical or rare, but at least put them. I'll be keeping you and your journey back to health in prayer! Let me know how everything goes. 🙏🏼💜
Did you have a feeling of toxicity as well that gave you brain fog? It's how I'd imagine going septic feels but no jaundice.
I though i had hepatocellular carcinoma of the symptom's.
Please pray for me! I am having surgery this week and this is my first time.🙏🏻
I've got you covered, Estha!!! 🙏🏼❤
@Sumeet Singh how do you felling now after your gallbladder out surgery?..
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU STILL HAVE THIS SITE, BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR STORY. I HAVE TERRIBLE OFF AND ON BOUGHTS OF STOMACH PAIN AND NAUSEA AND THROW UP...THEY WANT TO TAKE MY GALLBLADDER OUT. I AM 73 AND HAVE DEVELOPED AN ANXIETY ABOUT TESTING AND I HAVE A HIDA SCAN SCHEDULED FOR THURSDAY...I AM SCARED TO LAY ON A TABLE FOR 2 HRS. I HOPE IT DOESN'T GO OVER MY HEAD. THANK YOU
Hi Diane! I'm just seeing your message now. Did you get your testing? How are you? I'm praying for you!!🙏🏼❤️
ARE YOU SHOUTING OR JUST VERY NARCISSISTIC? Is your comment so important you feel you should be seen first? All-caps is so rude.
On July 21,2021..I got very sick with diarrhea, throwing up, and much pain …and extreme sweating. ..my mom call for an ambulance…to make a long story short..they diagnosed me with gallstones, pancreatitis, and spots on my ovaries all at once. My fam doc got in touch with a surgeon and I went to see the surgeon on August 30. He’s going to send me to the OR some time in September. Those aren’t the only health probs I’ve got…diverticulosis, NAFLD, anxiety, high blood pressure, and thyroid cancer.
I am praying for you! That's a lot on your plate. I hope you have a good support system around you! 🙏🏼❤
@@KatieBonillaFitness thank you dear..ive been to the surgeon for my gallbladder..he said he will remove it but didnt give me a surgery date..ive also went to see a gyno..she will remove my two ovaries and fallopian tubes on both sides..she said the MRI revealed 8cm cysts on both sides of my ovaries..said itll prob be in feb for that surgery.
So happy you posted this. I’m dealing with these things now, mines weight loss though. Chest pain and breathlessness too, and high high anxiwty
I'm so sorry you're going through this. It's so uncomfortable.😔 I'm praying for you!!🙏🏼❤
Omg thank u finally mine was a charlie horse cramp i was on ice packs all day they kept saying no its just pain in ur back u feel 9 months pregnant
I had that numbness in my feet too, never linked it to my gallbladder
And I gained weight.
You story is so similar to mine. Thanks for posting!!
You're welcome!😊
I would still look into your thyroid too. When doctors say it’s “fine” or “normal” that’s not really true. You want OPTIMAL! Big difference in those. I have all these symptoms and my gallbladder is crapping out on me now but discovered it was my thyroid as well. Doctors miss it ALL THE TIME!!!🤦🏼♀️
I'm glad to hear they were able to correctly diagnose you, Melodye! I've actually been fine since my surgery and am in perfect health now and dropping weight consistently. I am also getting my muscle back too! 😉💪🏼
Katie Meneely Fitness THATS awesome! So glad to hear that. I’m terrified of surgery but I’m to the point I know I need it. I had a lot of what you mentioned. It’s so scary!
@@MelodyeReynolds you will feel better after. All my symptoms are gone and I have no intolerances to any foods or anything. I feel completely normal.
Oh yes, the depression and anxiety. I’ve heard that multiple times over many years, including before I had a gut tumor discovered. Years later I’m still having tons of problems and everything is “normal” - except my brain and mental emotional state. GP and dozens of specialists can’t find anything so just shrug and turn away.
And I’ll add that they test for all the typical things, and apparently all the most typical presentations of reasonably known conditions. E.g., with you gallbladder is very common, but many presentations are ignored especially when they don’t see any gallstones.
🙏🏼❤️
I went to the hospital with pain and they headed to remove mines in emergency surgery it is very painful and you wake up so emotional after surgery almost caught pneumonia😞😞😞😞🙁🙁🙁😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm praying for you, David! I hope you are feeling better! 🙏🏼
Did anyone here experience pain only the left side under the rib in addition to the right side?
Yes I did
I didn't, but everyone is different.
just heard you sat what I have 10 minutes into video - a Charlie horse never heard of it , it sounds like the swelling feeling I have it comes and goes I can feel the lump as it comes up but then it drops and goes away
A Charlie Horse is another name for a sudden cramp that lasts for a little bit before it releases.
Thank you so much. My most concerning has been the toxic feeling. Like someone injected me with liquid led, i get blurry vision and like a disequilibrium. Feels like my brain is getting flooded with the led and I'm going down, never do though. Can you relate with that? They found stones 4 years ago in a ct scan, but all their ultrasounds have been good. The doctors think I'm crazy but I don't even go to the grocery store anymore because of the dizziness/toxic feeling. Worried it could be my liver, but liver looks healthy too. You're the first person to mention the toxic feeling, wonder why mine is so bad, probably from too much beer on top of it.
I have your symptoms and soon getting my gallbladder removed 😞
Just the fact that your body is "off" can cause that feeling and lethargy feelings, etc. I would talk with your doctor to see if this is what's causing it or if there is anything else as well. They will most likely want to check your bloodwork.
@@lauragarcia9674 I'm praying for you!🙏🏼❤
@@KatieBonillaFitness My bloodwork is all pristine etc etc. I finally lied stole and cheated in order to get them to do a galbaldder function test. I passed that too. So right now I'm laying off any drinking and hoping it goes away. Thank you for the help!
I have had diarrhea for two weeks. Mustard yellow, upset stomach. Other than that I’m okay. Dr thinks it’s gallbladder. I’ve read horror stories of symptoms of gallbladder removal. I’m terrified.
Don't be terrified. I had a wonderful surgery and recovery and am perfect since having the surgery. Praying for you! 🙏🏼❤
Yellow diarrhea can be cdiff... how are you now?
Me to my poop yellow sometimes slugs and sometimes just dissolves in water then I get constipated and then have the runs . I have no thyroid and I get stomach ache and it comes and goes and it feels like under my right rib swells up .
My right shoulder hurts . If I smoke it ageivates it if I eat sugar or gluten it agrivates it.
My wee goes dark then light . I drinking green tea and apple cider vinigar and raw garlic helps.
I'm of to dictirs today I'm scared I got patriaric cancer but also gall blader problems . I'm so tired all time back ache feeling sick but not throwing up.
Im experiencing gallbladder problems at the moment , I had an ultrasound a few years back they said there is some sludge in the gallbladder ! I experience a constant dull niggling pain in my lower right abdomen , and my right lower rib cage and abdomen is tender ! I'm a little concerned at the moment , unsure if I need too visit the gp again ! It seems constant throughout the day , and can feel like back trouble aswell , but when I go to bed it doesn't ache ??
I would definitely talk with your doctor. Cleaning up your diet may help support your gallbladder in removing the sludge. It's the stones that can become really troublesome!🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing. ❤ sending prayers
I feel the same gaining weight around my belly the last copple months pain undercrib cage that when away for a while now back tingle and pins and neddels feeling sick had pain in right shoulder yellow poop or sticky sludgy poop and sometimes constipated and yellow wee and pain in my chest and under my rib cage it feels like it swollen and I can't seem to eat serin foods like sweet foods and fatty gluten and fryed and I am always tired and I been cutting out sugar and always tired lower back ache as well .

My poop is yellow not clay colour mind. I get bone pains and also same pains in my feet . When my right shoulder hurts I thought same was pulled muscle. I keep telling gp but they sat Mt bloody come back normal but I'm in pain dull pain.
Ask for a CT scan or a nuclear dye test. I'm praying for you!!🙏🏼❤️
Hi. I had my gallbladder removed on July 1st. I stayed at the hospital for a week, for this few days been out of hospital on the 9th i had pain for 2 days only. I'm hoping for quick recovery.
I'm glad to hear everything went good and your pain didn't last long! 🙂🙏🏼
My problem is diet i don't know what to eat or not to. My appointment is on August 19,only to find out from my Dr about diet. Thanks for your info. Keep well.
@@keneiloeanna5000 eat basic at first and then slowly add more in. Especially the fats. Some people get an upset stomach, heartburn or diarrhea after eating fats. I haven't had any problems and even ate pizza shortly after my surgery. Everybody is different, so go slow and listen to your body.
Keneiloe Anna ....why so long in the hospital
Im current being testing for gull bladder problem, i randomly get bad crippling pain top of my stomach going through to my back also feeling really nauseous . My last flair up was Sunday night and mum wanted me to get an ambulance
Does the pain in your back seem to be on your right side more and radiate into your right shoulder? If so, that's a common side effect if gallbladder disease. When the gallbladder is swollen and inflamed it presses on a nerve and causes pain on the right side.
Yeah but seem to calm down after 2 strong pain killers but still in pain 6+ hours
My sister was 25 when she had to get her gallbladder out cause of it being infected and im only 20
It's ok, you will be ok if you need to have it taken out. For now try to eat a lower fat diet. When you eat fat your gallbladder makes concentrated bile to break down the fat in your liver during the digestion process. When it does, it contracts to release the bile into the liver. If you have stones in your gallbladder and it is swollen and inflamed, this is what will cause the pain, the contracting of the gallbladder. Pizza, greasy foods and things high in fat and oil will do it. Towards the end, even the fat in the egg yolks was making me sick because it had gotten so bad. Then, not only was I having the pains, but my body was also trying to reject the foods and I would get bodily sick for about 24 hours. I kept thinking I had food poisoning, but really it was my gallbladder the whole time. I'm praying for you to feel better and get the answers you need!! 🙏🏼❤
@@KatieBonillaFitness thanks
I have been diagnosed with gallstones about three weeks ago after having a gallbladder attack every night for a week. I have an appointment with a general surgeon in a few weeks to hopefully get my gallbladder removed. I have had another two attacks in these three weeks
I am praying for you, Marianna! Limit your fat intake until you can have your surgery. This will limit your attacks and suffering. When we eat fat our digestive system sends signals to our gallbladder to release bile to break it down. The gallbladder contracting is what causes pain. Eat a more protein and carbohydrate focused diet in the meantime. Ask your doctor for nutrition advice. 🙏🏼❤
Thank you so much
@@mariannavizakos7231 you're welcome!
thanks for sharing your experience!
You're very welcome! Thank you for taking the time to comment! 🙂
I'm Sheree I gained weight to. I didn't realize I had gall stones. So they removed my gall bladder Tuesday. And it hurt so bad afterwards. I'm feeling pretty good now but can't eat really nothing solid yet
I'm glad you figured out what was wrong and your surgery went well! I'll be praying you recovery quickly! 🙂🙏🏼💜
Surgery in two days praying hard
I hope everything went well! How are you feeling?🙏🏼❤
Thanks for sharing your story. with us. It helps a lot. I am familiar with pain in other areas that is not at the gallbladder as referred pain like what you mentioned. I know you mentioned joint pain and shoulder pain. Did you have any joint pain on the left side of your body or any neck pain?
You're welcome!😊 Sometimes I did if there was a lot of inflammation in my body. In general it was on the right side though.
@@KatieBonillaFitness Hmm, makes sense about the level of inflammation. Appreciate the quick response.
does your gall bladder feel hot to touch? mine always feels hot? I've had tests over years and nothing now I have to get another ultrasound to check
My gallbladder was not hot to the touch. I would reach out to your doctor and make sure there isn't an infection.🙏🏼
Yes mine was very hot sign of inflammation ,infection b care full
I've had a dull pain on my right side for 6 months now.. but it's not accute pain. It is tolerable. But it's getting more intense now. Last week my back started hurting. The right side of my back under my shoulder blade. 😕. Did you have back pain?
I have stopped sleeping on my right side because it hurts more.
I did have pain in my back under my shoulder blade. My pain was tolerable too. There is a nerve behind the gallbladder that runs up to the shoulder blade area on the same side. When the gallbladder is inflamed it presses on this nerve causing the pain in the upper back area and sometimes even shoulder. It is usually a radiating pain. If you are experiencing this, especially after a meal with fat in it, you should schedule a visit with your doctor and see what they suggest next.
I get exactly the same , pain in my right lower back , and also a very tender rib cage and abdomen ! It seems pretty constant other than at night when I sleep
I have pain in upper right quadrant , abdominal swelling I feel like fluid is in their I feel something expanding in my upper right abdomen something swell then drops I cant explain it sometimes like a balloon that expands around abdomen then deflates quickly have you had this?
tonight I had that happen with pain in upper abdomen - with numbness right shoulder
I didn't have the dropping feeling, but I did experience pain in my right abdomen and right shoulder when my gallbladder was inflamed. All those symptoms disappeared after I had it removed.
Omg that's my symptoms exact they said gallbladderhad mine taken out 8 days go but still having symptoms I had prior to. The buckling up
A slow Gallbladder (17% efficient by HIDA standards ) caused havoc on my system as this were my symptom's arm cramps, chest was like it was going to explode ,a fast heart beat from hell, nausea, dizziness ,depression etc. I went to VA begging them to pull that thing out since the regular surgeon's outside VA were giving me appointments like in 1 month just to see me i was so desperate that went to VA HOSPITAL EMERGENCY and they got this 2 surgeons that showed up like 11PM and showed them my HIDA scan results and this 2 angel's took care of me as 4 days latter after they run blood work and images they did pull this thing out. Don't play with a bad gallbladder as it can mess up your liver and pancreas because of the sludge.
I'm so glad you found surgeons who listened and took care of you!
2days and it’s goodbye gullbladder😭😭😭I live to eat now they’re like that’s gonna change🤦🏾♀️pray for me yall
I eat exactly the same as I did before I had mine out with no problems. Praying the same for you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Katie Meneely Fitness Me too I see absolutely no problem but I can’t stop eating I ate all day yesterday. FYI you are a natural beauty!!
@@KatieBonillaFitness are you eating fast food as well
@@ARMY-gv8uj yes. It's not something I eat a lot because I'm more health conscious, but when I do I have no repercussions. I eat pizza, burgers, Chinese, fried foods, etc.
@@KatieBonillaFitnessOK sweety and how many pizza slices you eat at once
Thank you for sharing this!!
You're welcome!❤
Hi . I need to get my gallbladder removed . But first they want a MRI . I want to ask you about your leg or you foot . I feel the same thing . It just started yesterday . I been having attacks for over a year .
Hi Marilu! I think some of the foot issue was from a nerve. When the gallbladder is inflamed it can press up against nerves. This is what causes the right shoulder pain and I think it also was affecting my right foot. I did, however, end up having plantar fasciitis shortly after having my gallbladder removed, so that may have been part of it too.
@@KatieBonillaFitness thank you so much for replying . Yes . I’m done with this gallbladder .
@@Maaaarrrriiii1 you're very welcome! I will be praying for you!🙏🏼❤
@@KatieBonillaFitness i need the prayer thank you .
I'm at the 20:00 in your video! This is me! Wait gain, pain, fatigue, dizzy, nausea.. I'm getting mine out on October 16,2020.... so nervous not want this sickness and pain to do away!
I've had a pain on my right side for 6 months now.. but it's not accute pain. It is tolerable. Last week my back started hurting. The right side of my back under my shoulder blade. Did you have back pain?
Hi Shell, I'm just seeing this now, but I'm hoping your surgery went well and your symptoms have disappeared!!🙏🏼❤
@@aliciam7774 right shoulder/back pain is definitely a symptom I had. When the gallbladder is inflamed it presses against a nerve that causes the right shoulder and back pain. I haven't had this pain since having my gallbladder removed.
Hey how are you now?❤
Completely healed with no issues. I forget I even had it removed now lol. Thank you for asking!❤️
I had 4 operations on my body hoping that I will not have more.
I hope you are all set too! 🙂🙏🏼
Please don't think I'm weird for this but I think your Beautiful! Like really really beautiful!
Thank you!
Thank you 💖
You're welcome!!❤
What medicine was it ?? Anti biotics?
Which medicine? If you can add a time stamp I'd be happy to answer you.🙂
Did you have chest pain ?
No, not really
I do but I have been having gallbladder issues since 2015. The bloating and discomfort can cause chest pain. They call it referred pain.
I did before I even knew! It got bad
I have, and i feel it straight to the middle of my back. I thought i was going to get away with out surgery, but i feel like I’m having attacks again.
Hi, I am going to have my surgery this. coming Tuesday and I am so scared! I only had 3 attacks and the last one was the worst one! And after that I didn’t have anything anymore! Do you think it’s okay not to continue the surgery now or should I still do it even I only had 3 attacks and never came back anymore
I would ask your doctor, but most likely the attacks will continue when you eat high fat foods. Once you get stones they don't come out and they will continue to irritate you. I'll be praying for wisdom for you. Let me know how you make out huh! 🙏🏼❤
I would get it done. I have been suffering for 7 yrs and just now found out it's my galbladder. And I have had maybe 10 attacks and they get worse
I had an ultrasound done to confirm it was my gall bladder
Did you have your surgery yet?
Skribz ...me too
