How are gallbladder issues treated?

Asked by Seek (34805points) September 21st, 2010

Recently, I’ve been displaying the major symptoms of having gallbladdar attacks – upper abdominal pain, pain between the shoulder blades that is sometimes debilitating (worst at night), nausea, vomiting, belching…

I do not have health insurance, and I’m not certain if I qualify for Medicaid (the application is processing). Is there anything I can do to suppress these symptoms on my own?

It’s terrifying thinking that I might have to wait until this becomes an emergency to be treated – I have no way to pay for an expensive surgery. Even a visit to a family physician is unaffordable.

What can I do?
