@dodgerblu818311, I want to welcome you to Connect. And thank you for the encouragement that you have offered.
I am sorry that you are experiencing some harsh pain. Has your pain recently developed, or has it been ongoing and gradually increasing?

Well if am correct on when this pain started, then it's been like maybe 3 or 4 months.

Hello @dodgerblu818311,

I'd like to welcome you to Connect as well; I can only imagine how stressful it must have been for you, with having a baby and then gallbladder surgery soon after!

We have a few past discussions on abdominal scar tissue or adhesions that can cause pain and discomfort; feel free to scroll through the conversations and tag members:

I'm also tagging @rdrdhap @giza @avocado1 @ginpene05 @kag13 @nonnie1@loriel59, with the hope that they, and other members on this discussion, will return with more insight for you.

@dodgerblu818311, have you seen a doctor for your symptoms? How do you manage the pain-episodes?

Thank You for welcoming me to this discussion. It was very streesfull and traumatic for me because I almost didn't make it when they were doing the gall bladder surgery. I stopped breathing for a bit. Then as few days after the surgery I was informed by my doctor that I had developed a very bad infection called C.diff. So I was in the hospital for a month and I couldn't even see my daughter.
