I had my gallbladder removed over a year ago. I have a history with IBS w/ constipation. All my life I have rarely ever had diarrhea...until my gallbladder was removed. I went from having a bowel movement once ever 3-5 days to 3-8 times a day, most of the time it is diarrhea, always accompanied by cramping and usually I have an unsettled stomach and generally do not look forward to eating. The only time my stomach is not upset is when I get hungry, but once I eat, about 20 min later I start feeling bad; bloated, gassy, unsettled, indigestion, cramping...you get it. I have seen a couple gastro docs and they seem to think it is no big deal, and that it is normal after having your gallbladder removed. When is it time to continue seeing doctors or just throw in the towel and deal with it? I am following a strict diet, nothing greasy at all, and mostly bland foods, no butter, no fatty meat (anything greasy or fatty sends me directly to the bathroom and it is painful cramps - not worth it) Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks
