i'm new to theese boards. Maybe theres
someone that can give me a bit of
advice?
My problem is, about 2 weeks ago I started
getting a pain under my right rib cage,
which then spread around to my back and
shoulder blade, when I tired to breath,
there was a strong sharp pain in both
sides of my back, so I could do deep
breaths, I had to do short breaths. Also
I feel bloated, have alot of wind from
both ends, feel tired all the time.
The pain does seem to have calmed down
alot, it's like attacks of pain, does
that normally happen with gall stones?
But I have been eating fatty foods still,
just cut down on them a bit.
Also gall stones runs in the family, my
mum and her two sisters have also had
it.
I would be very grateful for any help.
Thanks in advance.
Kerrie

I had gallstones about 5 years ago and
thats exactly what mine felt like..Ask for
an ultrasound before they perform all
those crazy tests, thats how they found I
had gallstones, its the easiest procedure
I went through and they resorted to the
last!! So please just mention you believe
its gallstones and you want an u/s. :)
good luck! Surgery will be a breeze haha!
