Please see the "Sticky" under Bile duct disorders-Supporter introduction

i had my gallbladder removed 18 months ago and have suffered with the same pain ever since and has gradually got stronger although it only lasts a few minutes i get this pain up to 3-4 times a week now. what could be wrong.

i too have a pain in my right side, i have gone to over 20 drs in the last 10 years trying to find out what was wrong. they picked me apart piece by peice, removing organs, starting with a full hysterectomy, then more exploratory, then my gall bladder..and after each surgery i still had the pain, so all that for nothing. I lost my ability to have children, my digestion is all screwed up now and have flare ups that cause my liver, my spleen and my kidneys to swell and become very painful with rapid weight loss. My last flare up was 2 months ago and i lost 15 lbs in two weeks. scary, but i am petrified to go back to a Dr. for fear they will hack me up even more. I finally resorted to eastern medicine techniques and got a bionetic screening. They told me I had a high level of toxins and acid build up. After much research i found that I am sufferring from Acidosis where if your PH balance is off it causes all kinds of trouble such as the symptoms I have been having. I have balanced out my alkaline intake and lowered my acidifying food content and that has helped me in so many ways. Dont let Drs tell you to take pain management courses or suggest you are making it up because they dont know what they are talking about and rather tag you as insane than go through extended trouble of looking at what is really going on. They are only human and they dont know everything, obviously.
