Probably not...: Most common would be gallbladder disease, but certainly a bacterial stomach inflammation could be possibile (h pylori.) gastric reflux is also a possibility. I doubt this would be a yeast infestation. Lower your fats, eat yogurt from time to time, don't lay down after meals, and seek an opinion from your doctor. Good luck.
