I had a really bad gallbladder attack about a year ago. So bad that I went to the hospital and was immediately admitted. They kept me on Demerol and intravenous antibiotics for 2 days to try and calm it down before the surgery. They were not able to do it with a scope so I have a 7 inch scar diagonally across my stomach. But I'll tell you, I'd do it all again in a minute. Having that gallbladder removed was the best thing I could have ever done. The pain was so unbelievable and I can't imagine why I would ever had let it go that far. Once removed I could eat absolutely anything.

If I was you, I'd see if I could have it removed sooner rather than later and if not, I'd stay away from the fats until it is removed. Once it's gone you'll be able to eat all the fats you want without any pain!
