Could be: Sounds like biliary colic. If you have pain soon after eating fatty foods or greasy foods it points to the GB. Best thing to do is avoid foods with high fat content. Once you have insurance you may need an ultrasound or HIDA scan to evaluate the gallbladder and it's function. See a surgeon.
