Just a FYI..I had Gallstones and it basically felt like I had heartburn when I ate red meat. i changed my diet and it mainly went away but I ended up getting my gallbladder removed. They go in thru the belly button and it was cake. I was playing in a Ice hockey league at the time and I was only out a week. Felt like I had sore abs after the surgery is all. Surgery was easy since they only air up your stomach area and go in with a camera and tool and pull it out hehe.
