Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Do I risk a gallbladder episode this weekend?

My bad gallbladder didn't seem to care what I ate. It attacked at random times. I eat pretty much whatever I want now. I never liked rich foods before, so not like my diet changed regardless though.

Never had gall bladder issues. I'm courious can you eat fish without suffering? Crab, salmon or bottom fish fill protein needs. While tasting great!

Like you, my attacks seemed pretty random, and when I felt one coming, I knew what I was in for for the next 4 hours. My diet didn't seem to affect it, had a mind of its own. I do disagree with the 'in a year or so you'll be fine'. Nah,,,,20 years and I still have to be careful and mindful of what my digestive tract is telling me. Every once in a while I just baaaaarley make it to the restroom in time.

I think mostly it gets irritated with either large servings of meat and or fatty meat.

It took a long time to figure out my gallbladder was crapping out... no gall stones so they didn't show up and the function test showed it was squirting out what it needed to.... surgeon figured I'd developed food allergies... I didn't eat any gluten for a year.... still had episodes.

Had a 3rd type of test done that collected a sample... I had gall crystals so out came the gallbladder. By this time I'd spoken with a lot of guys that had theirs taken out.... the general consensus was "I don't eat triple cheese burger anymore but otherwise I'm good".

I had lost 35 pounds by this time. I was really looking forward to eating enjoyable food again. I spent a lot of time watching "cooking porn" on You Tube, plotting my return to good food.

My system never got back to close to normal. Apparently once in awhile the digestive system never really come back.... I am able to wear old blue jeans I never would have thought I'd fit into again so I've got that going for me.

Good luck, Most people do great....
