Fatigue And Gallbladder??????????????? Posted: 12-05-05 21:21pm
Hello. I am scheduled for gb surgery.
It just seems that ever since I have had
these gb symptoms and things going wrong,
I am soooo tired. Has anyone ever heard
of fatigue being a part of gallstones?
Thanks

Yes, fatique is part of the gallbladder
problem. I have been virually iped out
since my episodes beagn earlier this year.
However, I did find something that helps
w/ this and it is food enzymes.
Apparently when your gallbladder goes bad,
the food you eat does not get what it
needs for a good breakdown causing all
kinds of problems from acid to gas to
diarea (sp) anyway, if you have stones,
then you may be wiped out by the pain of
it all. I do not have stones, all I have
is a low ejection fraction, but I still
have stomach pains and an acid problem!
Good luck to you..Let us know how you feel
after the gb is taken out.:)

That's good to know. I had surgery last
week and there were some saturdays in the
last few months where I could barely keep
my head up and had to go have a nap. And
i've just lost 70 pounds and exercise a
fair amount so I knew it wasn't that.
Hopefully, getting it removed will help -
eventually. Right now, my system is outta
whack at day 6 post-surgery and I have
insomnia a lot. I'm sure a lot because
i'm a side sleeper and everytime I roll
over to try it a bit on my left, I can't
do it.
Good luck with your surgery. I didn't
find it too bad.

Hi, I am so sorry you can't get good
sleep. Let me recommend an all natural
product that works like magic. It is
called natural calm by peter gillham, and
you can buy it off vitacost.Com or your
local health food store. All it is , is
magnesium and it is a powder that you can
put in a hot beverage it is 100% natural
and highly absorbable. Just try and you
will find that you can sleep like a baby.
The sheer stress of having gallbladder
problems can wipe a person out..I know :)
at least the source of your agony is gone,
let me know how this works. My friend
recommended it for me and it has worked
wonders. Good luck!

Yes, food enzymes come from various
sources (natural) sources that is. They
assist in helping the bopdy break down
carbohydrates, protiens, and fats. When
the gb is not working properly, then the
body can't break the food down like it
would if the gb was working 100%, so the
food is not broke down properly, leading
to poor digestion and this may cause a
lack of vitamins and minerals. The body
will respond better and not be as weak if
it has the enzymes to break the food down
properly. When the body is not getting
what it needs it will cause other
problems. You can get the food enzymes at
any health food store. You can even take
them if your gb has been removed. It has
helped me. Good luck
