Gallbladder Removed - 7 Weeks post op
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hello All,
I am currently 7 weeks post op from getting my Gallbladder removed.
I still get pains from the area where my Gallbladder use to be. Sometimes the pain will radiate to the back. Also I sometimes get chest pains, but when i get them its only for a few minutes. As of late I have been getting abdominal pains and they also go to the left side as well. Which is a little strange since my Gallbladder is on the right side. They sometimes can feel a little sharp, kind of like Ulcer type pain.
I will start off my saying that i recently have not been sticking to my diet. I have NOT ate anything crazy like fried food or super greasy.
Has anyone had the same symptoms post op?
Any suggestions or concerns?
I have a follow up with my surgeon tomorrow.
Thanks

Thanks.
I just recently met witgh my surgeon last week. We both agree that i am improving an it will take time to feel good again.
I did tell him that i am getting stomach pains and they move to my left of my stomach. Also i explained to him the chest pains i use to get in the morning. They only would last about 3-5 mins. He thinks its a GI problem. But I also told him i have been on anti-biotics for some time as well. He suggested more pro-biotics and lots of Yogurt.
Also that same day i had an appointment with my GI doctor. He thinks it could be stress or maybe anxiety.
Thanks

I did mention if we could do a test for H Pylori but he thinks i need to take some pills for Anxiety to help calm the nerves.
We shall see what happens.
Thanks

Try to find the if any food triggers your symptoms, Diary/fried/fatty/spiced food as it can cause havoc with some people. We are all different and what works for one may not for others
Good luck and hope all goes well

I think some of the pains contributed with me venturing off and trying some of the old foods i use to eat. Its either that or my GI is out of wack and i need to eat more yogurt to restore my gut. Also i still could be recovering from surgery.
Thanks
