What exactly causes GB attack ?

[Guest guest]

Hi all:

What exactly causes pain/discomfort during a GB

attack ?

Is it due to movement of gallstones in the gallbladder

preventing the proper flow of bile out it.. Or small

gallstones getting moved up from the gallbladder and

getting struck at the entrance of bile duct ?

In my case, my ultrasound should that my bile ducts

were fine and no signs of gallstones or inflammation.

But my gallbladder as multiple mid-size stones.

So when I experience pain, Is it when then gallstones

are trying to move up the bile duct and getting

struck. So when the pain is gone, does it mean that

the gallstones fall back to it's place in the

gallbladder.

Pls share your thoughts.

Cheers,

Rajesh
