    Pregnancy + Gallstones ? N-E Remedies ?
    Hello, My girlfriend is 6 weeks pregnant right now.
    She was recently diagnosed with gallstones, However being pregnant
    And having a surgery is not recommended.

    So she is being strong and dealing with it, With no narcotics, etc.
    She wakes up everyday around 6am, Moaning & Groaning In pain.
    Hot and sweaty, Moving around a lot, Can't eat, Throws up all the time.

    She literally lays in bed in devastating pain for the whole day.
    I asked her if she wanted to take a walk, So we can get her a little more healthy.
    She doesn't even have the energy for that.

    Im confused and I don't know what to do, I bought her some lemons and some gingerale.
    Some say that will help soothe the pain.
    Also she is taking Mylanta.

    Im just curious, Has any other female delt with these symptons which seem to have been
    Going on for a week or more.
    Is this normal, Is it part of the pregnancy ?

    How long will it last? Does it vary on persons?

    Thanks for your time, This post is urgent, As we don't know wheather to seek medical attention, Or otherwise.

    Are there any natural remedies? Or medications that can he;[

    Thank you for reading this

    Having gall bladder problems and morning sickness is not fun. She needs to go back to the dr who diagnosed her gall bladder problems ASAP as waking up in pain and sweaty is not good at this point for her health. I almost died due to letting my gall bladder problems go too long before being operated on in an emergency situation. The pain is extremely intense to put it mildly. Have her see the dr asap.
