...until one night it suddenly became unbearable. I ended up in the ER, then immediately onto emergency surgery to have my severely damaged Gall Bladder removed.

Everything has been fine since then but the surgeon told me it was a very serious situation, and the pain those last few hours was horrible, I had passed out from the pain before they took me out of the emergency room (at least I blacked out because I only remember up to a certain point) and I think that was the only reason they took me seriously.
