Can gallstones give more problems in pregnancy?

[Mother Goose]

A friend of mine had hers out and eats almost no fat yet she still has regular attacks. Gall attacks are not necessarily related to how much fat you consume - that is a common misconception.

In many cases, weight gain post proceedure is often related to people eating more food in general as the fear of an attack is gone.

In my case, I still can't eat eggs or some red meats as they go right through me or I get horrid cramps. Other than that, it has had no effect on my digestive system or abilities. I had my gall bladder out over 12 months ago.

Thanks Belfie and MG. I have asked my GP to refer me to a Gastro doc to see what they have to say about my situation. I would rather not take it out yet see if i can manage with watching my diet. My main concern is the possibility that it becomes unbearable in pregnancy.
