Gallbladder removal pain



Recommended Posts

For those who have had theirs removed how long did it take for the pain to subside? Everything else seems to be almost healed except that.

Did you have it done at the same time or separately. I had mine done at the same time, so I can't say. Overall my pain was minimal. Both my gallbladder and stomach was pulled thru the same incision. That incision took about a week to stop hurting.

I took me maybe a month to no longer feel any pain. My pain was located at the bottom of my stomach; kinda felt like a pinching sensation. If you feel pain that lasts longer than a month or pain that is just unbearable, go get a CT scan to make sure there are no complications.

Yes all in one operation.

I was sleeved 8/3 and ended up having my gallbladder out 8/29 almost a week out and I'm still in pain having to sleep in the recliner at night. It sucks. I'm hoping for some relief here soon.

Sleeved 7/7 and had gall bladder out 8/20. Gall bladder incision was 11 inches long and is still sore but I am able to keep it in check with tylenol.

I had pain for a month after my gallbladder removed too. It was from an internal suture pulling on my muscles. Once that suture popped, I was in no more pain.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
