@kremer1 After reading about your gall bladder surgery, it seems possible that you may have related surgery scar tissue that is tight that may cause your abdominal symptoms. I learned from my physical therapist about myofascial release therapy which can stretch out overly tight fascia and allow tissues to move, and also restore the fluid circulation. Here is a discussion where you can learn more. It may be something to try before you have further surgery. If this helps, you would have an answer. I have done a lot of myofascial release and it has a lot of benefits.

Jennifer,
Thank you for this information. I've found the YouTube site for this and will look into it. I think this is a better option than exploratory surgery to see if I have adhesions. I've also been able to change a gastroenterology appointment to next week to discuss this situation.
Thanks again, this is such a helpful site / forum for information and advice.
