Seems very likely that I have gallstones (will hopefully find out for sure on Thursday). Made for an... interesting weekend, and much of last week. I wish google would have taken my various symptoms and made the suggestion, instead of me having to notice a fat intake association, and guessing gallstones, because all of my recent various confusing symptoms fall under gallstones.

I'm really rather tired of having to worry about stones in my organs, dammit! Stupid hereditary things... (asked; it runs in my family, just like the kidney stones)

Ah, the joy.

Also? Ow. But at least now I know about the fat association and can _sleep_ at night without having to take strong painkillers.

Seriously, my dad had his out while in the hospital and reasonably sick with something else and could eat a normal diet without any unusual-given-his-other-conditions amount of pain within a couple of days. He was walking the day after surgery and off prescription pain meds in less than a week. Your gall bladder *holds* bile but doesn't make it, and it's very unusual to have any long-term effects from removal.
