overactive gallbladder. Anybody else familiar with this?

I have the same thing. Apples and other foods with dietary fiber help absorb bile. I also intentionally try to eat a little fat with every meal so that my gallbladder doesn't fill up and then "let loose".

Hi...sorry to hear that you are going through this but comforting to know I am not the only one. Have been having same issues for over six years and getting worse as time goes by. The gallbladder attacks are happening more frequently in the last several months. The one current has lasted two weeks and I have been so sick with the pain in my right side and back, constant nausea, vomiting on a couple of occasions and alternating between constipation and diarreah. Had HIDA scan a few day ago and mine came back 92% however my GI doc said it was normal however he referred me to a surgeon that I am seeing tomorrow and praying I can convince him to take this diseased gallbladder out! I want so bad to feel like a whole person once again. It has not only drained me physically but mentally. I also have a gluten intolerance and there are now findings that folks with Celiacs disease and or gluten intolerance tend to have what they call"supranormal" ejection fractions over 75%...I would be interested to know if you ended up having your gallbladder out in the last few months...I will keep you posted on my situation....thanks!
