If you indicate gallbladder problems, The Analyst™ will ask further questions including this one:

Has your gallbladder been removed?

Possible responses:

→ Don't know
→ No
→ Yes

The Diagnostic Process

Based on your response to this question, which may indicate either having an intact gallbladder or having had gallbladder removed, The Analyst™ will use differential diagnosis to consider possibilities such as Pancreatic Cancer. Although there appears to be a significant risk of pancreatic cancer following gallbladder removal, there is some conflicting evidence.
