Gallbladder Pain on Right Side

Posted , 1 user is following.

I had my gallbladder out 3 weeks ago tomorrow. Everything seemed fine I felt like I was healing perfectly. The incisions have healed. Now...I have this pain in my right side next to the 2 incisions there that feels like pulled muscles or something. I haven't overexerted myself at all. I took two walks in the last three weeks. I notice too I get horrible backaches I'm just really over this healing process. I'm 53 years old. I made a doctor's appointment but of course my surgeon isn't there next week or the week after so I'll be meeting with the physician's assistant instead. It just feels like something is wrong. I've never had a surgery that took this long to heal and I've had many but this was by far the worst surgery I've ever had. I told my friend today if I could go back and tell them to put it back in I would. So has anyone else experienced this pain 3 weeks post op? Is this normal? I'm just really frustrated. Thanks in advance for any stories like mine.
