Had a follow-up with the doc. It's not my gallbladder or my pancreas - it's my kidney again.
There is a 14mm stone this time around, with other calculi and associated 'phleboliths', which are tiny stones that form inside veins.
What probably happened earlier this month was the stone dropped from my kidney into my bladder, hence the severe back pain. I also was having trouble peeing, but I thought it was because of the diarrhea & didn't think it was the other way around - my body reabsorbing liquid from my kidney & passing it out through any means necessary since the kidney was probably blocked, which it apparently can do.
I go see the urologist in February. Yippee.
