I am about 5 weeks post op following my gallbladder removal. I continue to experience pain (usually mild) where my gallbladder was. My main problem is that whenever I attempt exercise like hiking or vigorous yard work, the pain intensifies and also becomes accompanied by a stabbing pain in my back just below my right shoulder blade. When the activity is discontinued, the pain slowly subsides over a period of days. What could be causing this, and what should I request of my surgeon? Thanks.
