I know this is bad but I have no kitchen do to remodeling so I ate one of those costco hamburgers for breakfast. They are a little fattening. I didn’t get a gall stone attack. Then I ate lunch. I had three carne asada tacos and no gall stone attack. Then around eight at night I thought I’d have the 5 wonton shrimp soup which is not fatty at all and then went to bed. My stomach started hurting really bad. Can I get a gallstone attack from fatty foods I may have eaten 8 hours earlier. I had the initial excrusiating pain for three hours. Then after that, I had a really bloaded stomach and a really bad dull blunt pain not as bad as the sharp excruciating pain but enough to make me cry and keep me up the whole night. I couldn’t lay down or put any pressure on my stomach because it hurt. Is that normal for a gallstone attack or is everyones gall stone attack different.

Well when I had Gallstone’s that is how it started out it was mild with a little pain but enough to make me cry, Than I just thought it was minor heartburn so I started eating Tums and it still wouldn’t go away, Than weeks went by and it got comepletly worse and horrible, I was throwing up so bad and my stomach hurt so horrible. Than I couldn’t take it anymore and called a doctor found out I had Gallstones and had my Gallbladder removed. You can get an attack from foods you have eaten all the way up to 12 hours ago it’s very possible. I would go see a doctor hun the more you wait the worse it can get.
