What Causes Abdominal Pain And Constipation?
Hi, I'm an 18 year old female. My sister had her gallbladder removed at age 22, and she has the same body type as me. I weigh 125, and I'm 5'9". I've always had an irritable stomach, but I've been getting painful cramps in my upper abdomen, and my stool is light-colored. I also seem to be constipated. Do you know what this might be?
