Could Gas, Nausea And Bloating Indicate Gallbladder Issue?
I have no pain but am nauseated with much gas and bloating after a meal containing pork spareribs. Over the past week I have also had a lesser attack after drinking several cups of coffee. I normally drink one to two cups. I am wondering if this might be a gallbladder issue even with no pain.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is not likely related to the gallbladder but due to gastritis which is irritation of the stomach lining.
Coffee is known to cause gastritis and bloating and the spices and other condiments used on the spare ribs may also cause this problem.
An acute attack of inflammation of gallbladder would be associated with pain.
Reducing coffee use as well as the use of any spicy or acidic or fatty foods would help to reduce any future problems.
I hope this helps
