I'm wondering if this problem happens for people who have had their gallbladder removed prior to surgery?

I had my gallbladder out in 2002, so it wasn't a factor in my surgery.

Cool! What I'm wondering is if having your gallbladder removed prior to the surgery helps with not being able to use the bathroom? I know that since my gallbladder has been removed, I use the bathroom much more often.

Well, we'll see after Jan. 13th!!

No, no effect one way or the other for me, but the Probiotics helped to keep me from getting backed up. I take one daily.
