Gallbladder Spasms Anyone Had Really Bad Pain With It.

[gordie123abc]

Hi there i am in a lot of pain and I went to my GP this afternoon thinking I was having a heart attack severe crushing pain in the centre of my back going up into my jaw that comes in waves approx every hour abdominal pain upper right hand side under the rib cage, my GP has given me strong painkillers and referred me to the hospital for a gallbladder scan. He thinks I may have a stone but I have never been in this much pain before. I honestly thought I was having a heart attack. He asked me what I had eaten over the few days and I had a roast dinner roast pots yorkshire pudding tuesday night. Full english breakfast wednesday morning. Homemade Eton Mess yesterday with double cream I only meant to have a bit but I ate the lot and a tuna mayonnaise roll at lunchtime today. He raised his eyebrows several times and then said this would suggest why my gallbladder was in spasm. He listened to my heart and said it sounded absolutely fine and he said many people go to a&e with pain like this thinking they are having a heart attack.

My wife was told that gallstones were the cause of her pain and told to cut out all dairy products including milk.She did this and also bought Soya milk ,I'm happy to say she has had no problems since.

Cholelithiasis (gall stones) can go undiagnosed for years, with no symptoms to speak of, but if a small stone is dislodged and enters the Common Bile Duct it causes billiary colic, and the resulting pain is unimaginable. I/M Buscopan will help, but only if you can inject it yourself. Surgical removal of the affected organs (cholecystectomy) is required asap as the colic is bound to return, over and over again. Torture like this is unthinkable, when the surgery is so simple.
Meanwhile, your fatty diet exacerbates the problem. Why do you do it?
