    What would be the sypmtoms? I each pretty much everything, didn't change my diet and don't take any medicine.

      For me, it felt like I was being stabbed through the back, right below the right shoulder-blade. It was unbelievably painful. At first I thought it was bad heartburn, but then it just got stronger and stronger, until I thought I was going to throw up.

      Had my gallbladder taken out after that, and no more issues at all. I can eat whatever I want, thankfully.
