Anything can throw your digestive system off. For me, unless I see my chiro every 2 weeks I get a little curve shape in my spine (like a small C) instead of it being completely straight and I can't digest anything. Who would have thought that the straightness of the spine could affect digestion?!

If you're worried, you could always do a juice fast or just juice everyday for breakfast to help clean your gallbladder. I've read people claim apple, pineapple, grapefruit, and lemon are beneficial for the gallbladder. Or do a gallbladder flush, if you're so inclined. Listen to your intuition!

If your rib is causing compression you would likely feel it from the breastbone to the upper arm. I am not sure if the compression would throw off the gallbladder though it is within the realm of possibility.. The thing is that gallbladder dysfunction will have referred pain to that same area. Since the pain has lessened, If you have not tried one or not done one recently do a Liver Flush and evaluate.
