Hey,

I cannot remember the name of anti acid drugs my surgeon gave me after surgery... I had to take them for a month to help reduce the bile/acid in my stomach.  Was prescription strength and he said quite strong...im sure there are a ton that can be prescribed for you.

What other GI problems cause recurrent nausea---have had CT scan , ultrasound and endoscope---all normal except endo did show mild inflammation---HIDA scan showed very low ejection factor---that is why they decided I needed my gallbladder out---never has any right quadrant pain---just pain between shoulder blades and indigestion pain----did you ever take prilosec type drugs after surgery?

Hmmm is it closer to the lower right side of the belly button?  Your appendix is located down there.... but yes nausea is definitely a symptom of gallbladder issues, do you have pain after meals etc? Nausea is a  symptom of many problems, for me my gallbladder pain was under my right ribs and into my back and shoulder, with horrible nausea and vomiting.  Could also be other GI issues.  Have you been to the doctor for any tests yet?
