I had my gallbladder removed two weeks
ago. No stones, it was badly inflamed
and diseased. I was in pain for almost a
year, but because the er's in the area saw
no stones they dismissed me. In this
event would that take the healing longer?
I still have burning and sick feeling
after supper. My surgeon has put me on
metoclopramide 10 mg. 4 times a day.
Should this help? And I am worried about
the length I will have to take it because
of the unusual side effects. Please help
if you can? I'm tired of feeling sick

I had my gallbladder removed on new year's
eve a few months ago. I also had no
stones (like you,) just a low hida
emission %. When they took it out, it
showed signs of chronic inflammation and
infection. I healed just fine with my
surgery. I feel 100% better now. The
fact that you still have burning and a
sick feeling after eating is not normal,
those should have gone away after surgery
(like mine did.) go see a gi, but a
different one. I was on metoclopramide
for a while before surgery but I didn't
feel any better on it. What it does is
make your gi tract work together easier to
food will move through your intestines
easier. Since I was having gallbladder
problems that drug did nothing to fix the
problem.
But the fact that you didn't have
gallstones should have nothing to do with
the recovery of your surgery. I didn't
have any and recovered just fine, there's
no reason you shouldn't as well. If you
want the names of my gi doc and surgeon,
let me know.
