I had my surgery 6 weeks ago and having the same symptoms. I can’t eat without feeling nauseated. Have lost 15 lbs. All tests also coming back ok. I wish I had answers too. I’m getting very depressed

Hi VIcki, i’m sorry to hear you are suffering. It’s very tough going through this. Has your doctor ran any test for you, bloodwork, ct scan, ultrasound to rule out any issues that might be causing your issues? I’ve had a ton of tests and all ok. I guess it’s just my body taking longer to recover and adjust to not having a gallbladder. Everyone is different. I’d like to hear of others who had prolonged issues/symptoms after gallbladder surgery and got better and maybe what has helped them get through it. It would give hope tha things will get better. I hope things settle down for you soon. Best wishes, Johnette

Hi Vicki, how are you feeling now? Any improvements since your above post?

I wonder if they left a stone. I had similar symptoms as stones were missed during surgery in the common bile duct causing irritation to the surrounding organs. An ultrasound, while I was on my side helped diagnose my problem. The catscan was useless. They were able to go down my throat to remove the stone and enlarge a narrowing in the duct to remove the stone. I couldn't eat without terrible pain all the way through to my back followed by nausea.

Had mine out 2 weeks ago, same here..losing weight at alarming rate, all scans and tests are ok...cant eat, still pain..disgusted
