Q: Gallbladder attacks ?

I am having the symptoms of gallbladder problems/attacks. Here is just a run down of the things I have been experiences off and on for 2 months.
• Pain/tenderness on right side under rib cage & upper abdomen
• Indigestion after eating, especially fatty or greasy foods
• Nausea/Queasiness
• Dizziness
• Bloating
• Gas
• Burping
• Feeling of fullness or food not digesting
• Constipation
• Headache over left eye
• Food coming up with some burps
• Occur mainly in the evenings

I have lost 20 lbs since mid December. I was really ill then and hardly ate anything. Towards the beginning of Jan I was doing better and started eating bland food because I was afraid of eating something that would make me feel sick again.
I have also been under stress with these symptoms, my relationship, finically situation, which then has been causing anxiety/panic attacks. I feel that sometimes this is making me feel sick. Some days I get consumed with my anxiety that I can’t control it.

I just really have a feeling this has to do with my gallbladder. Jan 19th I went to urgent care after I HORRIBLE night of major nausea. The doctor didn't like what i was telling him and I had bloodwork done. My liver enzymes were elevated, my ATL, billi, and something else was not in the normal range. The doctor then ordered an u/s which showed everything normal! I then was told to do a follow up with my PCP and if my symptoms get worse get seen sooner. So I have an appt with my PCP Friday, Feb 6th. I really hope he can do something for me.
Any imput would be great.
Thanks
Katie

So I had a CT Scan done and all looks good with my gallbladder. Turns out my spleen and liver and enlarged and I have a 'fatty liver' So I just need eat better and lose some weight and my liver should return to 'normal' My nausea has subsidded which may have been due to my stress and anxiety. I have been feeling better though I am still having pain behind my right rib cage but that is from the liver. so all in all everything turned out 'good'
