Still sore month after attack

Hey - we twins - had my first (think) gallstone attack early December -

I also had continuing pain - though initially all seemed to settle down - then had constant pain bra strap level both sides of my back. I was also on a fat free diet - but developed more pains in my tummy which were exruciating - they ususally happened two hours after I had eaten - my tummy would get uncomfortable and feel swollen - then acute pain right in the middle which then moved to the side and down towards the right. I also had all kinds of very sharp pains like a stitch under my ribs

It got so bad - I went back to the Docs - and he diagnosed me with an ulcer as well !!! So have some tabs and over the last few days it has settled down a bit - though - not sure wot to eat now !!!

Back to see Docs tomorrow and ultra sound soon - thing is - I kind of presumed all my pain was from the gallbladder - when in fact it would appear it was completely diferent.

Am not trying to frighten you - but - be aware - something else might be going on too - like me - if it hurts - see someone - also - they need to know about it too.

I am feeling just a tad battered - this is a lady who never once had any kind of indegestion or heartburn or any gastric symptoms -

I hope you get it sorted soon -every best wish. Lindy

Hi Im new to this pain too. I had my first serious attack on 30th Dec and I'm still in pain - which gets worse after eating. My shoulder is really sore and i am very bloated. I also have a lump about the size of an egg stinking out slightly from my right side just underneath my rib cage. After looking ont he web i kinda thought it was my gall bladder. A bit freaked out. Have made doc appt for week after next...
