hello all, I am now close to 3 months post Op and still having spells of upper abdominal pain similar to pre op pain.The last round ( 3 days ago) was a "lighter version" less painful, but still kept me in bed all day. I just want to get past this and live again! This is crazy!!

Are you having the pain you had prior to gallbladder surgery? Is there a trigger? I'm curious if you might have post cholesectomy syndrome. If you eat a 'gallbladder safe' diet - low fat/not greasy, do your symptoms improve?

Have your doctor check you pancreas.. mine was damaged from my gallbladder I believe... have them check amylase... I too have had same pain in the same places had every test ct scans etc.. my pancreas isn't producing amylase and when you look it up the same symptoms are involved with the pain I have had since my gallbladder was removed.
