Q: Is Anxiety?

Hi,
i had a gallbladder attack oct. 18, and became very dizzy. I have head a headache and dizziness ever since. I had problems with dizzyness before but they always went away. Not now.

I've since had my gallbladder removed, but i'm still working out some bad digestive issues. Are my headaches caused by anxiety, or is it caused by my digestive problems? I know i've been stressed out about my health every since the gallbladder started giving me trouble. The headaches make it difficult to think clearly and I wish I could resolve this. Sometimes they are very bad, other times are better but it's never gone.

I also get very dizzy and fatiuged after I eat, which is why I kind of doubt it is anxiety.

Have you changed your eating habits since your surgery?? Remember your body no longer has your gull bladder producing bile to break down fat, and your liver only produces a small amount of bile which wont help break up a lot of fatty foods, so it goes straight to your intestines which is most likely where your intestinal problems are coming from if your still eating fatty foods! I if you have changed your eating habits, stressing out over things could cause tons of problems!!! Headaches, stomach problems ect! I'm not sure about the dizziness, but the headaches and virtigo are most likely related. Have you been taking any meds??
