Gall bladder surgery

Posted by Marisol @marisols, Feb 10, 2025

Just had gall bladder surgery on Friday the 7th of February. Yesterday I ate something and was nauseous. Today I have been nauseous all day. They never gave me instructions on what to eat for now. Any help? Just wrote my doctor office.

Pain in lower right side after having gallbladder removed in May

Hello I had my gallbladder removed as well as my appendix and a tumor removed from my small intestine.
What I found was scar tissue you forms and is very painful.
My wife is a PT and instructed me to lie on my stomach and slowly rise up keeping your waist on the floor and stretch your abdomen and after a week 1 weekfelt 75% better. Take it slow as I'm no doctor or PT but it really helped me and I still do it about every other day. Only takes about 5-10 minutes.
Good luck I wish you the best. No one ever thinks about their insides until it happens. Best wishes

@doonman Thank you so much! Everything has been going through my mind that something else might be wrong. Especially with my liver. But I’ve had all kind of x-rays and bloodwork and they say everything is fine. I was thinking maybe scar tissue. I will try the exercises. Thanks so much for your time.

I had gallbladder surgery because of issues of digestion and pain in my right side. Things seem to help after the surgery, but I’m having terrible problem sleeping at night because of the pain when I lay on my right side. It is horrible and I have to get up and sleep in the recliner. Has anyone had these issues? I appreciate the help.

@hurtingonstatins I had my gallbladder removed in July. I had the same thing. Do not worry it will take a little over a month and it will go away.

Perhaps try digestive enzymes. I have lymphocytic colitis, gastroparesis and acid reflux and the digestive enzymes seem to really help. I take 2 Pure Encapsulations Digestive Enzymes Ultra just before every meal.
