Gall bladder issues after sleeve



Recommended Posts

Thanks, you should see a gastroenterologist, they were the ones to figure it out. If it is sphincter of oddi it won't get better only worse. They also said it usually happens after gallbladder is removed and it usually doesn't happen that quickly. Bloodwork becomes elevated also. My liver enzymes were doubling after each attack and bilirubin was elevated. Keep us posted and hope you feel better soon.

My Dr did the hida scan and ultrasound prior to the surgery, everything was fine so he left the gall bladder, guessing I'll be having those done again. I'll just be glad when I'm not feeling sick every day. I know everyone said the first year is the hardest but i am literally approaching my year mark next week and sometimes it seems the symptoms are getting worse instead of better which is what got me to wondering if it was the gall bladder.

My doctor did not check my gallbladder prior to surgery as I had no issues with it at the time but he did warn me that post surgery is was a very large possibility that it would need to come out. My pain in intermittent for sure but I'm ready to just get it out and move on. I'm tired of having surgery at this point.

      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. 😫
