9 hour episode of biliary colic a week ago. Ultrasound has confirmed multiple mobile stones. Surgeon said treat conservatively as it was triggered off by a mammoth 150g intake of fat 🙄 and the stones are in the body of the gallbladder.

but she also told me I have gastritis! Because of constant bloating and mad hunger pangs - she’s referring me back to gp to organise as gastroscopy

I naturally avoid carbs as most of them really affect my skin/joints (psoriasis) so what am I supposed to eat?!???????

has anybody else been in this position?

This book is helpful, it’s American but gives a good idea of what you can eat/foods to avoid.
