Post Gall Bladder Surgery Posted: 01-27-05 20:27pm
I had my gallbladder removed two weeks ago
due to a stone and diseased gall bladder.
Since then, I still suffer some of the
symptoms I had prior. Sever back pain
behind the lower ribs, nausea (still
eating very little foods broths,
vegitables etc.) back pain mostly occurs
at night when I am tired and after evening
meal,i have occasional hurried bowel
movements cramps after eating. I stopped
taking pain meds 4 days ago but I am
temted to return due to the pain. It has
even made my vision blur when it is bad
enough and my neck gets stiff and leads to
a headache. I have had numerous tests,ct
of abdomen and pelvis full blood tests.
The surgeon did see white spots on my
liver but biopsy was negative. Any help
or suggestions would be helpful. I have
lost 30 pounds since october (a good thing
I guess) but there is a limit. Please
help!

You sound like me. I just didnt get
better after having my gallbladder out.
Has anyone heard of adhesions?

I just had my gall bladder out 2 weeks
ago. I've had this nagging uncomfortable
feeling on my left side just under the
bottom rib. Has anyone had these
symptoms?

I Too Suffered These Symptoms Posted: 02-03-05 23:43pm
Hi. I hope I can be of some help! I
had my gall bladder removed almost 3 years
ago. As for me, I still have pain every
now and then in my back. It was so bad
at first that I thought the surgeon left
one of the surgical tools inside! I was
wrong but it sure felt that way! I also
suffered from sudden bowel movements -that
I am actually still suffering from on
occasion. There are times when I can
actually feel the clamps inside me. It
doesn't hurt but it is annoying! I would
recommend calling your doctor again. It
took me about 6 months to finally bring
this to my doctor's attention. I had
just had my first child 7 weeks before
this surgery so I was pre occupied. I
had to have a colonoscopy (doesn't hurt
-just slightly embarrassing) and found
that my small intestines were infected.
Don't hesitate calling the doctor. You
can't be too careful!
