A member asked:

I have had gallstones for 2 years following rapid weight loss. just wondering why i get severe nausea every time i have biliary colic? what's the link

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Surgery : It seems that you are symptomatic with the gallstones. I recommend a cholecystectomy before more serious complications occur ie infection, blockage or pancreatitis
