Have Had Gallbladder Removed. Having Pain In Upper Abdomen. Worrisome

I am having severe pain in the upper abdomen that feels very similar to when I had gall bladder attacks. I had my gall bladder removed in 2005. Last night I was extremely ill - throwing up, etc. My husband and son are also both sick (we are thinking that we possibly had food poisoning of some sort). I am no longer vomiting or have diarrhea , but the pain is excruciating. I drank a glass of water and it suddenly got MUCH worse.

Dear friend,
welcome to HCM.
if all are sick in the family,
then u may be right in thinking of food poisoning etc. vomits/ diarrhoea may follow.
do husband and son also have pain, nausea?
any fever?
if unwell , pl. get medical help.
till then can chew anti-emetics like ondansetron and antacids. simple pain killers like paracetamol may help

keep posted on progress...
