After labrascopic gallbladder surgery

I had labrascopic gallbladder surgery 11/21/07.
9 days after surgery I developed a low grade fever,nausea,vomiting,dull pain in upper stomach and sharp pain in right upper quadrant.I lost 26 pounds since the surgery.
My Gi did a CT,Endoscopy ( showed a lot of Bile in stomach ),upper GI x-ray,blood and Urine tests and a MTI.All tests came back negative, nothing was found.
My GI said he doesn't know what it is and to wait and continue the neds he gave me 2 weeks ago:
Compozine,Welchor and Aciphex.
Any ideas what to do now? Symptoms are still the same.

No, I had the surgery and have been following this GI board carefully and have not seen this before. 6 weeks after surgery I'm doing fine and both me and my sister who had this same surgery at about the same time are doing fine and haven't had complications. I hope you find out what is is soon. all the best

Did your doctor discuss the possibility of retained stones/ sludge in your bile duct?  I would think that should be the next step if you aren't getting any better.
