My gall stone/bladder attacks were worse. I had to have my gall bladder removed due to it being FULL of stones.... after 3 years of agony with Dr's trying to convince me it was heartburn before having an ultrasound done & finding out the truth!

I have also been suffering similar attacks recently... almost exactly the same actually but not sure what it is due to my gall bladder already having been removed LOL
Danielle, I had this after mine was removed - I needed a stent put into my bile duct to keep it open so the stones my body continues to produce don't rub on the walls causing pain. It is a relatively non-invasive procedure and can be done as a day case. Your GP can refer you to a gastroenterologist who can fix this for you.
