Gallbladder Symptoms
Did you know that you can go for years with gallbladder pain, and symptoms that are signaling an imminent gallbladder attack, without knowing that it’s indeed your gallbladder, and not just pesky digestive problems? Well, your answer to this question is probably “no”, because you still assume that it’s your faulty digestion. It’s scary to think that so many people ignore pain and tenderness under the right side of their ribcage, light-colored stool, painful indigestion, bloating, and gas, when these are prominent symptoms of a gallbladder problem.
Constipation is a gallbladder symptom, as is headache, diarrhea, the feeling of undigested food, and frequent need to use laxatives. There’s no doubt that many people out there are experiencing one or more of these symptoms, so how come no one recognizes gallbladder pain or the possibility of gallbladder disease? It’s because the majority of people are misinformed. Millions of people go to their doctors every year because of digestive complaints, and often the gallbladder is the last place that your doctor thinks to look.
If you have all of these gallbladder symptoms accompanied by a fever, then it’s of the utmost importance that you seek medical help immediately because you’re having a full-fledged gallbladder attack! Gallbladder disease is not uncommon, and the poor nutritional and lifestyle habits that we practice in our country today are surely to blame. A gallbladder attack is similar to experiencing the myriad of symptoms that one will have leading up to the attack, and most of these are digestive problems like were mentioned before; including abdominal pain, pain in the right side of the rib cage, nausea, vomiting, and difficulty breathing. However, when you’re suffering from a gallbladder attack, the gallbladder symptoms will be markedly more dramatic and severe.
Gallbladder symptoms are chronic, and often intensified after eating food. If these chronic symptoms are ignored and written-off as just faulty digestion, then they’ll continue to intensify until you have reached gallbladder disease and start having gallbladder attacks. The full-fledged attacks happen most frequently at night, and are 15 minutes to 15 hours in duration. If you’ve arrived at this stage of intensity, then your body is trying to give you the message that this isn’t simply poor digestion; you have a serious gallbladder issue that must be addressed.
Gallbladder problems need not be the mystery that so many people assume that they are. You must recognize these symptoms early so that you can engage in the preventative measures that will keep your gallbladder problems from turning into a gallbladder attack and eventually disease. The smartest choice is to employ a natural gallbladder diet at the first sign of symptoms, as well as using various supplements and natural treatments to stop the disease in its tracks. This way the gallbladder can be naturally revived without the need of removal. Since most people answer the call when it’s too late, they don’t realize that they can take advantage of a natural, simple, affordable, and healing cleanse that can not only heal their gallbladder, gallstones and all, and revive their entire health in a way that they never imagined possible! But they can! There have been thousands of people across the country who have learned the secret to gallbladder health that no Western Medical doctor wants their patients to know about.
If your dog were hollering at you in the night, would you completely get rid of it, throw it in the river, or send it permanently to the shelter just so you wouldn’t have to listen to it anymore? Of course not! So why do so many people completely get rid of their gallbladders when there is an attack of symptoms? They’re trying to silence an organ that is communicating to them through pain and discomfort. It’s time for people to realize that they can lovingly heed the call of their gallbladders, and answer to its symptoms with a natural and effective method of healing and reviving. With this simple and life-giving gallbladder cleanse you are not silencing your gallbladder for all eternity, but gently calming, healing, and flushing it with the natural ingredients that it is pleading for.
Is it possible for the pain to move from the right side of the rib to the left ? Can it still be considered a symptom of bad gallbladder ?
What happened is that the pain started under my right side but now I feel it in the left as well. Sometimes in between. And from what I read online it should hurt only on my right side. Is it my gallbladder or something else ?
Hi Jim,
It is indeed possible. Although pain under the left side of the ribcage is less common than on the right, it is just another indicator that you may be suffering from a diseased gallbladder. Go and make an appointment for some tests. Usually gallstones can be easily detected with an abdominal ultrasound. Keep us informed.
Dan,
HI I HAD MY GALLBLADDER REMOVED LAST YEAR AND HAVE NOW STARTED TO GET SYMPTONS OF GALLBLADDER PAIN
Hi Pat,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re not feeling well. Unfortunately, pain after gallbladder removal is a harsh reality for many of us. But before we accept it, let’s take a look over some aspects.
The first thing you should do is look at your diet. Have you been disregarding this aspect lately? If you have, stop right now and go back to your diet. From what I know, pain after gallbladder removal is triggered by what you eat and what you drink. So, is this the case?
If not, the next step is of course a consultation. See your doctor and check for new problems that may have arisen.
If the tests don’t show anything and the pain is still there, post an update and I will recommend a new course of action.
Hope you get well soon,
Dan
I have been having nasty sulfur burps during the day, and then at night they increase in intensity, leading up to 2 hours of vomiting and watery diarrhea. I had this about 10 years ago that lasted for about 6 months and finally went away, but it’s started back. HELP!!
…forgot to tell you that I’m also having pains under the left breast – but only at night with the vomiting & diarrhea
I have pressure in lower stomach,not pain. after I eat I feel awful. Is it gallbladder, it runs in my family, I am thin I exercise alot and I eat right,I do not understand. My doctor order a ulta sound.
I was wondering if constant fatigue could be a symptom of a gallbladder problem. I seem to have some of the other symptoms; pain under ribcage, appetite decrease, pain in center of back between shoulder blades, burping after I eat and a “tight” feeling around mid-drift area. My doctor did test me for hepatitis and that came back negative as well as some other blood tests specific to the liver. We are going to start looking into the gallbladder area for the problem. I have noticed that in most of the symptoms that I’ve read about the gallbladder, nothing has been mentioned about fatigue.
Thank you for any information.

I have all the symptoms of gallbladder disease. I also have a family history of gallbladder problems, but the ultrasound my doctor ordered came back “normal”. Therefore, my doctor will not run anymore tests. If it is not my gallbladder, then what could it be??
Hello Dan,
I’ve been battling gallbladder symtoms for months, Ultrasound found a polyp no stones
adjusted diet as per my doctors advice, still pain on right side seems to be getting worse. Could a polyp cause that much pain? Please advise.
Thank’s,
Theresa
Dan,
I have pain under my right ribcage! however it feels like a spasm and let’s up! Is that what the pain would feel like if it were related to the gallbladder. I have had severe heart burn and stomach problems for ever. I did go to the emergancy room last year and they checked my gallbladder he said one day i would need to have it checked out. I don’t have a fever so am i safe to say that is not the issue? And if you could explain the pain under the ribcage? Would it go away like mine does or would it stay?

My friend had his gallbladder removed and has been having frequent pain. He has also put on weight in his stomach and looks “pregnant”. Are there certain nutrients and enzymes that can help replace or aid in what the gallbladder once did in the digestion process? Can undigested food be occurring, and causing problems, and can a bowel cleasing with laxatives or colonics help?
I HAVE A CONSTANT PAIN ON THE RIGHTSIDE UNDER THE RIBS AND A TROBBING IN MY LEFT SHOULDER AND THEY BOTH COINSIDE. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH BOWEL MOVEMENTS AND HAVE ALL MY LIFE NEED TO TAKE SUPP’S FOR HELP.
I AM 63 AND EAT VERY WELL AND WORK FULLTIME AND VERY ACTIVE FOR MY AGE.
I CAN LIVE WITH THE PAIN, BUT BOTH OF MY PARENTS DIED OF CANCER AND I HAD CERVICAL CANCER,BUT MY DOC SAID THAT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY PLAYBOY HUSBAND. WHICH I CAN ASSURE IS VERY TRUE.
PLEASE ADVISE ME OF MY CONCERNS, MY HUSBAND IS NOT WELL ON A CPAP DAILY TO SLEEP AND I NEED TO WORK TO MAINTAIN THE HOUSE.
I had very severe pain under my right ribcage. I think the left side hurts now from the stress of trying to ease the pain I went through, which was truly horrible. Fielding the pain through these attacks strained the rest of my body making the point of ache hard to diagnose.

Hey! I am having the same problem. I had an ultrasound, and hida scan. They came back normal but with sludge. My Dr won’t do crap. I feel like I’m being ripped apart! It hurts so bad! If you figure it out before I do please let me know! I feel like I’m dieing.
