Gall stones are usually multiple. In such case you have to get the gall bladder removed by operation. Otherwise the gall stone may enter the common bile duct and may cause obstructive jaundice. That is serious condition.

What is unmitigated gall?

I know someone who was recently diagnosed as having unmitigated gall. She contracted it while on the phone with a crabby old woman, which seems to have brought on the condition. Other possible factors included cats, money, and an even worse malady that's very hard to rid yourself of... Vicki-itis. So far the unmitigated gall only seems to have caused mild headaches, perpetual work weeks, and occasional outbursts-- as might be expected from someone with tourette syndrome. We expect she will make a full recovery, but are worried about the possibility of reexposure to the infectious source.


What does pale feces mean?

Light-coloured poo poo's! Pale feces can mean you have gall stones blocking what is called the common bile duct leading from your gall bladder to your liver. The bile that is collected in your gall bladder is secreted in to the liver which is then secreted into the stomach to help digest fats that you have eaten. This bile is the substance that turns your feces to a brownish color, so if your feces is pale colored, you most likely have a blockage of your gall bladder.

What causes gall stone and is it in gall bladder?

Gall stones are indeed inside the gall bladder. They are buildups of cholesterol that over time bind together and form small 'stones' the size of small pebbles. About 60% of adults have gall stones and don't even know it. When fatty foods are eaten, the gall bladder contracts and squirts bile into the small intestine to aid in digestion. A person does not need to have a high cholesterol level to have gall stones. Sometimes, as the gall bladder contracts to squirt bile, a stone obstructs the small tube that goes from the gall bladder to the intestines. This is what causes the pain associated with gall bladder trouble. Many people will experience gall bladder pain once and never get the symptoms again in their lives. The only time for any real concern is if a person gets a fever and chills at the same time as gall bladder pain, as this can indicate an infection. Then a visit to the ER is in order. Gall Bladder pain is generally a gnawing pain just under the lower right ribs. It tends to last from 1 to 2 hours and occurs after having eaten.
