Q: pain after appendectomy and gallbladder removal
asked by: sharks on September 3rd, 2008

Had 3 c section, 1 in 1998, 1 in 2001 and 1 in 2005. Last one doc found hernia on right side and alot of scar tissue which he repaired. Had appendectomy in 1983, scar became infected after so was a bit of a nightmare. Had gallbladder removed in Dec 2007. In last 2 months have been having pain in right side for eg. when I push in where appendix scar is it is quite tender. Pain radiates up abdomen to under ribs feeling tender sometimes there too?? Have had CT scan, ultrasound done late last year and all they could find was gallstones, so subsequently had it out. Could this pain be related to adhesions? Pain worse if I am on my feet for a long time, stressed or sitting for a long time?? Have a very stressful business and tend to brace right side when stressed. Any info would be good. Thanks
