    Hi Monica

    I would go back to your GP and get them to organise some blood tests and a ultra sound, just to check it out.

    I had my gall bladder out 19 years ago and I still get pain and reflux and they can't find out what is causing it. Others have had that too. Sometimes it settles down on it's own.

    On the other hand you can get Post cholecystectomy syndrome, so it is a really good idea to get it checked.

    Check out the NHS complications of gall bladder surgery.

    Good luck and try not to worry, there is nothing they can't sort out.
