As I found out today - (in simple terms) "the failure of the gall bladder". Several months ago I had rapid weight loss and constant bowel movements. I lost approx 15lbs before I went to the Dr. I never had any pain associated with this, but the Dr did state that some people can and do feel pain. The only cure for this is the removal of the gall bladder per my Dr. Noted there is no way to tell if and when the gall bladder will just shut down. Mine is currently opperating at 7%. Dr stated that the gall bladder will operate at this capacity until it shuts down. It will never increase or get better. So time to have removed....lol
