I had Gall bladder surgery (laprisocopy) over 6 weeks ago. I am able to have a bm everyday and it
is not loose. I can burp. My problem: I cannot flatulence and I am so bloated. When I wake in the
morning I feel fine and within 5 mins. I am bloated. The bloatiness is so bad that it hurts my ribs and
my back spinal area. I am in constant pain. It hurts to sit, it hurts to stand....IT HURTS
When I had the gall bladder removed I did not have stones, the HIDA scan showed that it was just not
working correctly. I did have gall bladder attacks (3 in one week).
I am also having a sharp pain in my left side near the intestine. I had a hysterectomy 5 yrs. ago, so
I know it has nothing to do w/ my ovaries.
I have had every test under the sun: endoscope, colonoscopy, MRI, ultrsound, 2 CT's (one w/ barium
on w/out) and a barium enema. I have been probed and prodded.
I know this feeling is not right, I am not me post the first GB attacks.
Does anyone have any idea or advice? Please help, there are days that I am at my wits end!
