Hello, I am 9 months out, had my gallbladder removed one month out. Still have the pain under my right rib cage, that radiates to my back shoulder. Doctors do not know why... Going in for an Upper GI in a few hours. Wish me luck and say a prayer that they will finally find out what the Hell is going on....and If anyone else has any advice PLEASE share....I am going NUTS. Also was dehydrated yesterday, got 2 liters of IV fluids. Cant Eat or drink much with out being sick.

Could you have developed an ulcer? I had symptoms that pointed to my gallbladder, but it turned out to be a lot of tiny ulcers in my stomach.

I have pain in my upper right back just behind the shoulder blade. I'm only 1month out and still have my gallbladder. I've never had troubles before--and I have heartburn like crazy which is new for me. I am eager to hear your test results. I am hoping you start feeling better soon!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
