Post-cholecystectomy or gallbladder removal surgery

Just remember now that without a GB your bowel needs to adjust to bile draining directly into it. It sounds like that is what's going on. I am 7 weeks post op and along with the Post-Cholesectomy Syndrome I am having my bowels are also adjusting and I have Crohn's. I strongly suggest a probiotic supplement like Align to help with the change to your bowel. Good luck.

Thank you, I will try that & see if it helps. My bowls do seem ok though. I'm still in pain but it seems to be with movement like walking & bending. I'm getting so fed up with it when I know most people are back on track by 7 weeks. I have an appointment with my surgeon again in 2 weeks, so I'll see what he says.
Are you having similar pain either side of your lower tummy? I hope you feel better soon. Good luck! And thank you for your help.
