I have had 4 tests over the years for gall bladder all negative, yet I still have
"attacks"...

What remains is "sluggish bile"... and this can respond to the amino acid taurine. I use 500mg a day to control this, and it seems to be working.

Most gall stones are cholesterol based. Taurine complexes the cholestrol that is eliminated by the gall bladder, and helps it move thru and out, instead of concentrating in the gall bladder and forming stones.

This is inexpensive and has no side effects that I am aware of.
500mg a day to start, but some people use 1000mg in divided doses.
It is worth a try. I get mine at Puritan's pride.
