I used to get them allot. It was usually after I ate fatty foods, like fried chicken, or anything from a most fast food places, with the exception of Subway. I guess something called bile is stored in the Gallbladder, a pear shaped organ on the right side underneath the liver, and the bile waits for you to eat something that is stored in the small intestine, and helps with keeping toxins out of the blood. Well with me, I would usually eat something fatty before bedtime, and about 2 am, I was up and in excruciating pain. I had gallstones that would block the bile ducts to the stomach and cause the pain. The burning in the gallbladder wasn't making it any better either. The attacks would last hours. Usually from 2am till about 8am and then it would start to subside, and believe me, that 6 hours of pain can seem like days. After I had enough, I changed my diet to less, sometimes, no fat foods and it worked. But I'll tell you, you can sure start to miss what's not good for you. Well I stuck to this diet for months, but then one day, I just had to have some fried chicken, I was craving it so bad, so I did, and my GB started hurting like before. Well this time, I had found a remedy online that really works. At-least it did for me. It is, 1 Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar mixed with 1 cup of apple juice. I drank it down and withing seconds the pain was gone. I couldn't believe it. So there you are, if you ever have an attack of the gallbladder like I did, and you hate Hospitals, like I do, then try that remedy. It really works.

And here are some more testimonies.

I had gallbladder surgery when I was 24. I had 1 huge stone that was causing the problem. I finally went to my doctor after suffering for days and he told me that I was too young to have gallbladder problems.:confused: So I went to another doctor and after tests I was scheduled for surgery the following month. All I had to do was follow a strict bland diet which I did and the pain left.I couldn't wait to get the dang thing yanked out! I have had 2 children and I can tell you that gallbladder pain is worse than labor pains! At least while in labor you get a break between contractions but at least in my case the gallbladder pain was a constant stabbing, grinding pain that wouldn't let up until about the next day. So I advise anyone with gallbladder pains to stay away from fatty foods, chocolate or any kind of raw vegetables and bananas.

I had my gallbladder out in August 2010. I was in terrible pain and I couldn't keep anything donw. I knew something was wrong. It turned out that I had two large gall stones. One was blocking the gallbladder. I also had gall stones inside my gallbladder. My case was serious so I had to be taken to the hospital after dianosing what was wrong. I had two surgeries. The first one they tried to break up the gall stones. The second surgery they had to go in and take the gallbladder out. After sugery I was in terrible pain. I spent a total of five days in the hospital. The doctors told me that if I had not gone to the hospital it could have been fatal.

I had my gallbladder out when I was 30. My sister had hers out at 16! My mom had hers out at 50. I guess bad gallbladders run in our family. Worst pain I've ever had in my life!
