@blbenson91 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect!

My husband had his gall bladder removed in September 2024, and experienced complications like you talk about. It turned out there was a biliary issue, and the bile duct was acting up. There was some "sludge" still there, that had to be removed, and a temporary stent placed. Have you been able to contact the surgeon's office that did the original procedure? Some times, patients also get pancreatitis complications, so that might be something to have checked.

Please let us know what steps you take, and how your husband is doing?

We are currently back in the ER again for this so hopefully they can figure it out. Thank you for your input we will see what they say!
