Question

Can I still have small amounts of white flour or alcohol like wine, beer, or vodka if I have gallstones, especially on days when symptoms flare up? What foods should I stick to if I'm delaying surgery for now?

Avoid white flour and alcohol during gallstone flare-ups; stick to low-fat, fiber-rich, bland foods.
