pain after gallbladder removal Posted: 04-08-08 20:18pm
I started to get this crushing pain in my
chest, felt like someone was shoving my
stomach up my rib cage, my stomach looked
like i was pregnant and the pressure was
so bad it made my ears nose and throat
hurt. I was really bad after i eat.
Went to doctor they told me my gallbladder
was bad and i had gallstones.
I had Surgery Lapo (spell check that) and
the next day i went back under in the GI
lab to remove a gallstone out of the bile
duck.
I'm 7 days post surgery and my stomach is
so bloated 2 people have asked me if im
pregnant and its making my incessions
hurt. My throat burns after i eat and the
pressure is still really bad. Its hard to
breath some times because of the pressure.
My doctor looks at me crazy when i told
him my ears and nose hurt from the
pressure but my head is cloudy i'm not
crazy.
I have several questions please.
1. is it possible to have such pressure
from gas in stomach that it makes your
ears and nose hurt. I feel like someone
popped me in nose.
2. when does this stop, i have no more
gallbladder and im still hurting.
3. when does the swelling and bloating go
away, i cant even sit up in a chair good,
i feel like my belling is sinking in and
it hurts.
Thank you Kim

Hi have you had a ct scan done for a
hernia? your sysmptoms sound very similar
to mine as i have a hiatle hernia does it
help to belch or pass gas? the nose and
ear hurting sounds like a sinus infection
and the bloating from the gas will go away
in time your body will absorb it and rid
itself of it just takes time but the
pressure you feel sounds very much like a
hernia i would have it checked best wishes
to you and good luck.
