Here's the thing about having gallstones: the gallbladder is one of the more ridiculously named organs in the human body. If you say you have kidney stones or liver pellets or whatever, nobody thinks twice, but the gallbladder is mysterious and intimate and combines two embarrassing words to make one big embarrassing word.

So I went looking for a better name for the gallbladder, like surely since the theory of the four humours went out with the middle ages we've come up with something better to call this, and I found out that we have two other common names for the gallbladder:

The Cholecyst
The Biliary Vesicle

THOSE AREN'T BETTER.

Incidentally, have you seen the gallbladder? It's actually green. It's the green part of our body. Could I have a more mortifying ailment.

But I did find one quote that I think may be of use to me.

"The gallbladder is a hollow system that sits just beneath the liver."

I am beset by a hollow system, my friends, which is causing me great pain. Soon I shall have this hollow system removed, and I will feel whole again.
