Gallbladder issues?

MplsMurph

Anyone had any issues with their gallbladder since LO was born? I started having back/rib pain and nausea about 3 weeks PP. went to the ER once and talked to my OB about it at my 6 week check both said it was muscular. Well it has been getting worse so I went to my primary dr and she thinks its my gallbladder. She is waiting on insurance approval to do a CT scan in the mean time I'm freaking out. My initial blood worked shows that there is no emergency but I'm still worried about what's going on.

My DH had issues for 3 months. He couldn't eat anything, had lots of pain. We went to the ER twice. One time he was having what felt like chest pain, they ran a bunch of tests and sent him home saying it was stress and anxiety. Finally got the gallbladder checked and he had surgery to remove it 2 weeks before DS was born. The symptoms he had weren't the classic symptoms. Come to find out the artery leading to his gallbladder had a kink in it and wasn't allowing it to perform properly. They went ahead and removed his gallbladder anyway. I hope you get some answers soon.

I did with DS but didn't realize thats what the problem was until DS was 2.5 and then had it removed a week later! Much better since but still have to watch certain foods b/c I will get ghost attacks and they suck

Me!! DSwas2weeks old and I woke up with serious chest/back pain. Went to ER and my doc suspected gallstones. Got blood work and ultrasound that confirmed it... Now just waiting for a surgery date.. Doc said it is common after a pregnancy, due to all the hormonal changes:( I'm not looking forward to getting surgery with a 6 week old baby:(
