I had the same problems after gallbladder surgery with the same reflux you describe. Never had problems with that before the surgery. Turned out I had sludge - or small stones - in the bile duct. My gastro doc did an ERCP and sphincterotomy (the muscle from the bile duct to the small intestine) and all was well. Your experience with ERCP will be much the same as endoscopy, but the doc has to be very careful when running the dye through the ductwork to avoid pancreatitis. Not something you'd want an ameteur doing.
