I was diagnosed with this condition on a Monday and had my gallbladder removed on Friday. I had terrible, painful symptoms, weight loss, etc. before the surgery and I still have pain. Mainly pain in the upper right quadrant where my gallbladder used to be! I’ve seen many gastroenterologists since my surgery in 2016. No one seems to want to or is capable of helping me. I am in pain almost 24/7 (can’t speak for when I’m asleep). It hurts the most when I’m reclining. I told that to a specialist at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville about this pain and he suggested I needed mental therapy. The pain is real and I’m not going stand living with it much longer. I lived with 24/7 abdominal pain for 22 years, from age 19 to 41 and saw many gastroenterologists who all misdiagnosed me. I had abdominal adhesions. Once they were removed it was like the sun came out! I can’t in pain live that way anymore.This pain has been disabling me for almost 7 years now. I need competent, expert help. Please, if you can help me, I’d would be forever thankful.

I have a strange scenario. I fasted for 7 days and developed pain in my stomach about a week or so afterwards which would put me under acalculous cholecystitus. But the pain has been on my left side. I have all the symptoms, when I don’t eat the pain becomes so intense, it’s like I have to keep constantly eating in order to make the pain go away. Right shoulder pain. But the strange this is the pain is on the left side only. Sometimes it radiates to the center at the very top of where my ab muscles start. The only thing that has seemed to keep this in check is hot lemon water. I can be at a 10 out of 10 in pain for a week almost. I drink hot lemon water and I’m at 5 usually within 24 hours and 0 within a week. Have you ever come across the pain being on the left side instead of the right side of the abdomen? And lemon water helping to subside the pain? This doesn’t completely fix the issue because if I stop drinking lemon water for a week or so the pain comes back to a 10 in about a week later. What are your thoughts?

I have gallstones and went on a 12/8 fasting diet. After a week i had an acute attack of Cholecystitis. I therefore would not recommend this diet for those with gallstones!

Get a 2nd and 3rd opinion before you remove your gallbladder Otherwise, you may regret it for the rest of your life
