I seem to be having gall bladder issues.

I have an ultrasound and upper GI scheduled for the 8th of December.

I get an intense pain on my right side below my ribcage after I eat heavy... Thanksgiving triggered the reaction nicely. The pain is usually a brief throb or surge and then it subsides for 5-10 minutes and repeats this pattern for several hours. This is a classic inflamed gall bladder/gall stone symptom.

Lately, I have a dull pain (constant) in the same location which intensifies when I sit down. I believe this is because my abdomen is compressed when I sit and I am applying pressure to my gall bladder. The only comfy way to sit is to stretch out by sitting on the edge of my chair and leaning back (like I was in a lazy boy).

Anybody have their gall bladder removed. Any bad side-effects or complications to report afterwards.
