Migraines/headaches after gallbladder removal

Posted , 6 users are following.

Hello, I had my gallbladder removed 10 weeks ago and have been experiencing several on going symptoms, nausea, fatigue, lightheaded and pain in my upper abdomen, all every day since the surgery. Now for the past 30 days or so I have been getting daily migraines and feeling a lot of pressure in my head with blurred vision. I have gotten migraines before the surgery but not every day like this and I don't know what to do about them. I don't know what's triggered this. Anyone else experience this?

      Have you had your blood pressure checked since the operation? I had some of these symptoms up until week 3 and my blood pressure ranged from very low ro very high. Once it settled down I began to feel as though I was making progress. hope you are feeling better soon, it's very depressing to feel poorly and unable to do the things you want to be doing.

      best wishes
