Has anyone else experienced gallstones ?
Sistersmainpiece ....thats exactly what I say about it all
Yeah when seanna was 3wks old I began started getting massive pain n just got worse n more often .. when eating n drinking....
But when seanna was 7wks old I couldn’t take it any longer..
Went to hospital at 3am to find out gallstones n pancreatitis was on hospital for a wk...
I also had them after I had my second son and I couldn’t even walk breath though I was dying I wound up getting my whole gallbladder removed
@thawkins When I have a gallbladder attack I generally feel it in my upper back and shoulders. Sometimes I get sharp pains in my gallbladder but not really. Last night I had some pains like under my breast kinda and it felt like contractions. I could feel when they were coming and were at the peak. I eventually threw up and felt better. I was wonder if it was my appendix.
It definitely could be either. My appendix I had thought I moved too fast, like I said I was just two weeks PP from a c-section , but the pain continued and got stronger so I went into the local hospital and they sent me up immediately after my x-ray came back they said if I would have waited to come in it would have ruptured. My gallbladder on the other hand once they found out that’s where my pain was coming from they said it wasn’t urgent so I had to wait a week before it was removed because at the time it wasn’t an “ emergency “.🙄 I just saw that you’re pregnant Lord bless your heart I couldn’t imagine having that pain a whole damn pregnancy. 😭😭
@thawkins, the only time my gallbladder bothers me is during pregnancy but generally if I watch what I eat I’m okay. I had a gallbladder attack about a month ago and I’ve been watching what I eat. My pain last night eased up and want away so imma keep and eye out.
@sistersmainpiece, That’s crazy I just thought if you had repeat stones that you just have it removed. Like someone else said I would rather give birth over and over again than to live with gallbladder pain it was so bad and Even since having it out I really can’t eat much without being in the bathroom. 🤦🏻♀️
Had my appendix removed two weeks PP after my c-section and my gallbladder went bad when she was five months old. Gallbladder pain was way worse for me!
What were your symptoms with both ?
@sistersmainpiece, Just very sharp pains all around my abdominal area and my lower back. Only difference with gallbladder is I could eat a pack of fucking crackers and Even those would set my stomach off. 🤦🏻♀️
@thawkins, that’s how I’m doing but they’re saying I have to go see a gastroligist before deciding yo take my gallbladder because they said my gallbladder isn’t bad yet
I have them also the pain feels like contractions
I felt like I was literally dying. I couldn’t even stand up or sit up straight. It was awful.
I have them. I rather give birth.
But it’s not necessarily the gall stones that cause issues it’s when they are blocking a duct it causes issues.
So what causes them ? They won’t do any surgery on me until I see a gastrologist they’re saying they don’t know if that’s what I’m having pain from
It feels like contractions literally
