    Aww MD, you poor thing. Gall stones are not nice.
    As Alan suggested, avoid fatty foods, and eat regularly. To make the gall bladder contract we used to give patients a big milk shake, and suggest some fried food. Used to work a treat, so i'd be steering clear of those things.
    Hope you don't have another attack, and get it sorted soon.

    Well I've been to see the dr now and I have an entire 4 step pain-management plan, starting with an antinausea drug & umpteen pills and finishing with "if all this doesn't work then go to the emergency room for morphine" LOL.

    I'm pretty sure it won't come to that as (thanks Ange) I *will* be steering clear of milkshakes and fries!!
