Mine got cut out when I was 30. I blame chocolate chip cookie dough and strangely enough I didn’t want it anymore after the surgery. I’m kidding....sort of.

I had 5 attacks of that excruciating pain and don’t miss my gall bladder at all.

Same here, but it was likely that nightly quart of ice cream. Surgeons called the bladder's contents "gravel". Now "intolerant" to Demerol. (Headache).

Took a decade to restore abdominal muscles, which were cut-through in a ten-inch cut in 1984. Told I could eat anything afterwards, I eventually developed kidney stones, and am restricting myself to low-oxalate vegetables.

As for pain beyond gall-stones and kidney stone-pain, I've had intercostal myocytis, a painful knee-replacement recovery, migraine with aura, shingles, a broken hand, and three fractured lumbar vertebrae.
