Reply #16: It happened to me 3 weeks after my youngest was born and [View All]

I was literally, climbing over the back of the couch because I couldn't breath!
The EMT's had to pull me off the couch, I was so much in pain. I was rushed by
ambulance NINE TIMES before I finally had projectile vomiting on an intake nurse :P
and that got me into the ER asap! That also got me a surgeon, who said, "You have
a HOT gallbladder and it needs to come out!" They scheduled me for an Upper GI but
in the meantime I went to my own Dr. He gave me Lortabs 7.5 mg. and those helped
but after the upper GI? I didn't have anymore problems!! Weird!! But I was pretty
much reduced to an all liquid diet by that time because I didn't want to risk another
attack. I've had three kids and the gallbladder attacks were the most painful!!

On Edit: My Dr. said the GI may have dislodged a blockage caused by my pregnancy.
