? Gallbladder pain ?



Recommended Posts

I am 3 weeks out from the sleeve. I am eating soft foods and have no problem keeping anything down. However, I am now beginning to feel sharp pain (not unbearable) along my lower ribs on my right side. It occasionally radiates to my right shoulder. Classic symptoms of gallbladder irritation I think. I know this can be an issue post op but this soon? Anyone had issues with gallbladder post sleeve?

I am 5 weeks post op and have been having the same issue but mine is more like a dull ache. I plan on bringing it up at my 6 week follow up this week.

At my 6 week follow up, she said it might be gallbladder pain. She said to keep and eye on it and try to track when it occurs. If it continues and I notice that it's typically after eating, they will check my gallbladder.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
