When my wife was pregnant with our last child, she had these strange pains. The doctor sent her for an ultrasound or something, and they found out she had gallbladder problems. She was too far along in the pregnancy to have surgery, so the doctor said she should get it checked out again later. Well my wife had those pains off and on, especially when she had eaten fried or spicy foods. Her doctor said to stay away from those foods. Everything seemed fine for a long time and now her gallbladder is acting up again. Is this something she really needs to have surgery for or is there another way to work it out?
