Gallbladder Symptoms And Menstrual Cycle

[Momto2Boys]

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I was recently diagnosed (questionable - I have a long post in post-diagnosis forum) with Celiac's. My MAIN symptoms are gallbladder pain/spasms during my period (usually starts the second day of my period or maybe that's when I notice it more because the menstrual cramps aren't as bad??) As I type this I am on my second day of my period and both my menstrual cramps and gallbladder are hurting - OUCH! I'm supposed to have an abdominal and pelvic ultrasound on Tuesday at GYN office (my best guess as to when my period was going to be when I scheduled my appt - of course I started a bit early and am having my symptoms now and it's Sunday so doctor's office not open. May try to get in tomorrow. They wanted to do it when I was in pain).

Anyway, anyone else have this? I'm starting to think I may have endometriosis now too (GYN thought it was more rare to have it all the way up in the gallbladder)? I hope not. I went from healthy to all of this crap (started in January). I'm still in partial denial. Will try to get in with GI doc who is supposed to be good and specializes in Celiac's to help with diagnosis etc.

Thanks!

It sounds like you may have an ovarian cyst to me, which will be detectable in the ultrasound. I've had one and the pain intensifies during that time of the month and the pain travels and is hard to detect the exact source of it. My friend also had the same thing recently and thought she was having appendicitis.

Hi, I was just wondering if you ever found out what was causing the pain. I am having the same problems and I'm just trying to search for answers fast because as you know

It is painful to deal with.

Thank you, Aw
