Gallbladder problems?
For the past 8 days I've been having pain in the center of my abdomen. I'm thinking I'm having gallbladder attacks and I've gained 37 pounds in that same time frame. I don't have medical insurance and I'm kinda scared. Also, I'm a 46 yo female and I'm 247 pounds. I was 210 just 8 days ago.
Hello. The attacks of pain could be due to gastritis or gall bladder stone related. To confirm a gall bladder stone you need to get ultrasound of the abdomen done. Yes indeed you have put on a lot of weight and need to seriously consider weight loss option. Bariatric Surgery is a very good treatment option for you as it is done with key holes and has very minimal morbidity and a fast recovery
