Is Gall Bladder Pain A Genetic Disorder?

I had my gallbladder out when I was 50. My daughter is experiencing the same pain in her upper back that I had. She is 41 and had a baby 3 years ago. My mother had this same issue after a baby at 40. My sister also had this same thing when she was 36 after delivering a baby. What do you think my daughter has?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Pain in the right upper abdomen can be due to
-acute cholecystitis
-chronic cholecystitis
-hepatitis
-gallstone slipping into bile duct called choledocolithiasis
-pancreatitis

There is nothing as such a hereditary cause for the pain.

Actually every

Fat
Fertile
Female
at the age of Forty (4Fs) - are at risk for gallstone disease.

Do not worry.
Take her to a clinician. He/she can examine her and correlate clinically.
