I am also four weeks post gall bladder removal. Pain right around my ribcage is quite brutal. Especially around my back. I still feel unwell and fatigued. Also pain in abdomen on and off and up in the night two or three times needing to pee. I think it’s a case of different people - different rates of recovery and pain.
This is major surgery so be kind to yourself. Rest and gentle exercise 😊

7 weeks today, under my ribcage and belly button area are hurting me. I didn't even know my gallbladder was an issue. I thought it was my hiatal hernia. I just want the pain to go away. Migraines seem easier to deal with than this....

Hi
Can I ask if you are feeling better now. I am 3 weeks post gall bladder surgery and I have the same aching feeling in my ribs that you had. Would be good to think this isn’t a permanent pain as I’m very uncomfortable.
Thanks
