hi i had my gallbladder out 2 years ago it turned to open surgery as my gallbladder duodenum and liver were stuck together ! i was in hospital for 2 weeks because i had a bile leak so they put a stent in and was sent home with a colostomy bag on the drain . i have had bile diariah since then and now have metaplasia on an old chronic ulcer what had bled before my gallbladder problems the surgeon has said its because of too much bile . i just wondered if anyone has had a bile diversion to stop the bile reflux and diariah im at a loss ive tried bile binders diet and suppliments but no relief
