I had my gall bladder removed 5 years ago and I still wake up every night will phantom gallbladder pain. It goes away for a couple hours after I drink something. I've see 2 specialist, had numbers of tests, and my doctor is currently trying me on different medications to see if anything helps, but we haven't found anything yet. Has anyone had anything similar??? I'd love to get a full nights sleep again.

Phantom Gallbladder Pain
I had my Gallbladder taken out 12 years ago and I still get the most painful attacks about twice a month and they are full on PAINFULL!! I almost went to the ER the other night bacause it was so bad.....only i've been to the ER about it 3 or 4 times since the surgery and they never find anything. It kind of feels like a deadend. My attacks come late at night just before I go to bed and it makes it hard to get a good ngihts sleep. The last time I vomited and could hardly breathe. I need some advice other than what I have already been told. Its under my right ribcage. Its so painfull! Any advice would be great.
