hi everyone , day six today. Had a bad tummy ache all night , went to the loo this morning and I think I need to find out from nurse tomorrow how to stop the loose poo.
So stitches out tomorrow ... I have had the wounds covered but I expect I will be told to leave them off after stitches come out , sounds daft but it worries me.
Plus I havnt been able to wear a bra since the op as I wear wired ones and it presses on the wound just below my breasts and I noticed last night I have an awful big sore patch under my breast ... Skin on skin so sore so having to treat that now.
Still I feel better than I did before the op so that's a great thing just need to sort tummy now. Xxxxx

am new to this forum . I am 7 days post op . Feeling worn out and have developed a gnawing ache in my stomach ( same place as before the op and a pain in the back between my shoulder blades kept me awaken most of the night with the worry the gallstone pain had returned ! Also the wound at the top of my tummy has become hard to touch . Is this your experience?
no loose stools in fact the opposite . Eating low fat food and little and often but feeling very disappointed that this gnawing pain has returned . Even started up the lanzoprazole to see if this helps .
i was initially admitted to hospital in December for a week with an infected gall bladder and had IV antibiotics to reduce the inflammation. However, gall bladder full of stones and a stone blocked the bile duct which made me jaundiced and very poorly . Had the dreaded ERCP ( tube/camera down throat ) in January and was told the stone had shifted by itself
Am terrified there is a stone left behind and the problems will start all over again. any advice / reassurance would be grateful . Am eating little and often , low fat but feel nauseas all the time.
