Dealing with symptoms after Gallbladder surgery

Thank you for your response. I have been to a gastrointerologist. They did an endoscopy, a CT scan, and labwork to check CBC, liver enzymes, and checked fornrare liver disorders. They said liver enzymes are in the slightly elevated range and that I was negative for rare liver disorders. I do not have problems with constipation or diarrhea. It’s so weird. Mostly nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, and weight loss. I’ve been to PCP, cardiologists (had a stress test and heart ultrasound and passed both), gastroenterologist, and I recently had an MRI of my head (checking for MS lesions due to fatigue). I see to be a mystery like many others here. I hope someone who had difficulty in the past could come back and give us “newer ones” an idea of how long this lasts or what the culprit was to cause this so we can all get better and help others that come after us.

@micki733 I am personally out of ideas, but I see you have gotten other responses. I hope something works for you or that some one of the doctors you are seeing can figure out your problem. It's so frustrating when they cannot.
Different circumstances, but similar in that it was not a problem immediately. I had a liver transplant in September 2016. It was quite a while later that I started to have problems. I still am not totally sure what my problem is but from what my research has turned up it is probably IBS. I am still trying to eliminate different foods to see which may be causing it.
What I read is that surgeries can affect your system in such a way that it's possible for conditions like this to develop. So can the drugs that I need to take now, so it's one of those things, but it did not show up for quite a while after the surgery.
I hope your answer will prove to also be something that is not serious, but more of a nuisance. When I figure out what all of my triggers are I will be doing much better. As it is now, my stomach is upset more often than not.
