Gallbladder removal: Anyone still having complications?

Hello @debhammel and welcome to the Digestive Health support group on Mayo Connect. I appreciate you sharing your experience with a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Many of us have found the low FODMAP eating plan to be helpful with GI symptoms.
You mentioned that you are seeing your gastroenterologist later this month. It this to get some answers to the problem of loose stools?

Yes, it is. My husband and I had a bout of food-related diarrhea on September 9 and while he recovered completely in less than 24 hours, I have had frequent loose stools ever since. I suspect my gut biome has been disrupted by low-dose Doxycycline I was taking for Rosacea and stopped taking that but have not seen any real improvement yet. Also taking Immodium. Hoping for answers/relief when I see my gastroenterologist on Tuesday. I've been on a low FODMAP diet for 6 days - not sure how soon to expect results from that. I have less GI discomfort but no change in bowel habits.
