HI! I am new to the boards as well,but I have spent the last two weeks reading the entire site and all the posts I can. I would like to offer you some possible advice. I am in a similar situation to you. I am in my mid 20's and I have been recently diagnosed with both IBS and celiacs disease. I also had my gallbladder removed last year and I have been hit with two bouts of girdaria (both the same week exactly one year apart!!!) Just before my gallbladder surgery I hada constant pain and it was after I ate anything. It finally got to the point where I did not want to eat for fear of the pain. I ended up having to major attacks that sent me to the ER before everyone finally connected all of my pain to my gallbladder. Might be something worth looking into. I have found that the peppermint recommended on this site has been a great help in settling my stomach no matter what. Have fun on your trip and good luck to you! Kindest regards, Amy
