I am on a special diet since having an operation for gall stones. Yet to have my gall bladder out but have been drinking my own vegetable juices and no fat diet, etc. and am feeling 100% better. This morning I "passed" what looks like a round, flat, pink, marble and I certainly have not eatten anything that would connect with this. Have searched the web but cannot find pictures that show same color, or shape as this one.
Any ideas out there?.
Taking a second look, it is a tan color not pink.
I have had my gall bladder removed. Gallstones come in different colors. Mine were whitish and they looked like pebbles you find on a beach. My brother also had his gall bladder removed and his stones were black. I think you should talk to your doctor. If you have the stone with you, you can show it to him/her. Passing galstones can be dangerous because they cab get stuck in the bile duct and cause jaundice.

It doesn’t sound like a gallstone.
They are rough and not smooth and flat.
You might want to google to be sure.
Also, you would be screaming with pain, if you passed one.
Why someone would operate on you and not take your gallbladder is beyond me. You will continue having problems with this, because the gallbladder is often diseased once you start having problems with it.
Ex; gallstones.
I’m sorry hon’ hope you aren’t in pain.
