Gallstones - have you had them?Yes. I had my gallbladder removed ca 2013 and since then I have been into A & E three times - in 2014 in Paris - where they diagnosed acute mild pancreatitis PROBABLY caused by a gallstone. Then in 2019 I had two bouts a week apart, the second of which took me to Abdn Royal Infirmary. And this Tuesday, out of the blue and the worst bout so far, again into ARI where I was given 4 mg of intravenous morphine by the paramedic. I don't drink hardly at all and I've (so far) been given no real help except what is effectively palliative care after an attack. If anyone has any insight into what can be done to avoid this sort of problem, I would like to hear about it. In between times I have no problems at all - but one of these days I may get an attack - eg while driving - for all I know. Up to now all but one have been in the early morning, after a visit to the loo.
