Your pain sounds like mine when I was having gall bladder trouble. Wish I knew all about clensing before I went to the hospital and got it removed. I was having pain that would last breifly, then go away. It was intense pain, though. It felt like a growing bubble in the V of my ribs, and pain in my back behind my shoulderblade. I threw up a lot, too. I want to mention I was pregnant for two of the attacks and the OB told me it was because the baby was so big. But I got the last two attacks after I had the baby, and the last one three weeks after my gall bladder was actually removed! I got these attacks when eating a fatty type food (except the last one). They happened while I was active, or driving, so I always thought it was the motion that was doing it, but come to find out it was a Gallstone getting stuck in my bile ducts and causing the pain, and vomiting. After I had the surgery, for about three to four days EVERYTHING tasted like salt. Even ice water, it was yucky to say the least.
