Hi, @koneil - I moved your post here to a current discussion on chronic diarrhea, so you can talk with others who've experienced this. Here's the discussion you are now a part of:
- Does anyone have chronic diarrhea? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/does-anyone-have-chronic-diarrhea/
Hoping members such as @carrie40 @msh466 @jimhans48 and others will have some thoughts for you on the chronic diarrhea you experienced for 5 years and how common it may be to have this symptom from a gallbladder issue.
For the benefit of others in this discussion, koneil, I wanted to confirm the medication the nurse practitioner prescribed that was very helpful to reduce your bile content and which helped the diarrhea you were experiencing. Was it cholestyramine (oral route), described on this Mayo Clinic Drugs & Supplements site https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/cholestyramine-oral-route/description/drg-20068562/?
