Had an attack and my gall bladder was just removed

I am pretty worried.  I just had my gall bladder removed
on Monday, and Friday I had what felt like a gall bladder attack. Does this mean I have a stone yet in the common duct?  Just looking for advice...

This sounds very familiar to me. I had my gallbladder out and ended up in the ER three days after with what felt like a gallbladder attack. After many attack and years I finally got a diagnosis of Sphincter of Oddi disease. This often starts right after a gallbladder is taken out. COuld also be some stones were left in the duct. Let me know if I can be of help.
