Hello everyone! I just wanted to report that they took out my gallbladder yesterday! Very sore and I think this is worse than the gastric bypass! Anyone else that can relate?

Thank you, esskay77. Are you glad you had your gallbladder out?

it means it's full of bile sludge and that is causing the pain. There could be some small stones in there too. It's not uncommon after wls to have gall bladder issues. That's why some surgeons take them out as part of the wls procedure. Should I get my gallbladder out or is it something that could wait a few years?

Well, I got the Ultra sound done yesterday morning. I was called by the doctor's office and was told I have a sluggish gallbladder and it should be removed. What is a sluggish gallbladder?

So, I went to the doctors on Monday. I am having my gallbladder checked on Wednesday morning. Thanks everyone for all the caring words and advice! I will keep you all posted.

Surgery date = 10/6/15 RNY gastric bypass

I am starting to get pains again where I can be doubled over at times. It happened Friday night and now again today. Should I wait till tomorrow or go to the ER now. I don't want them to think I am a whining baby or a problem patient.

It's a very painful pain that I can't describe. Broken glass inside sounds about right. I also am having a hard time drinking water. It hurts to drink water and the pain is on my left side under my breast and that feels like my new stomach area. However the horrible pains I have had are on my right side by my belly button and under my right breast.

Well 174 is awesome! Great work!!

I have my 3 month checkup on Monday and I will be talking to the doc. Thank you everyone for your kind advice!

Yes I still have my gallbladder. It's more pain on the right of my belly button but not up through my shoulder.

I had RNY Gastric Bypass on 10/6/15. I am now three months out. I don't have nausea or diarrhea. It lasts for about 20-45 mins.

I bought some Protein O2 waters that are flavored. The are only 15 grams of protein but I like them a lot better than the Isopure!

I have not tried or seen them. Where did you get them and have you tried them?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had pains more on the right side that hurt almost worse than labor pains. I have had this happen 3 times now. The pain is so bad that I want to cry and I start breathing like I am in labor. Could it be that I have ate to much? The first time it was 3 small meatballs. The 2nd time it was some rotisserie chicken with a couple bits of my husbands chicken nuggets and the third time was homemade beef stew. Any ideas and could this be dumping as well?
