Gallbladder Removal And Inconvenient Bowel Movement/diarrhea Posted: 11-09-05 18:18pm
Hello. It’s been 2.5 years since i’ve
had my gallbladder removed and I have
problems with bowel movement. Often I
have diarrhea, but that’s not the extent
of my problem. After about a year of
problems after the surgery, I figured out
that if I ate something first thing in the
morning, this would cause a movement soon
afterwards. And then for the rest of the
day I wouldn’t have to worry about any
“emergency movements”( the kind were
it hits you like a ton of bricks soon
after eating). Coffee worked best for
this. This worked for quite a whine, but
nowadays (the past month or 2) it no
longer happens. I still drink coffee in
the morning and then eat lunch around 11
and more often than not I do not go. But
once I eat dinner at work (9pm ish),
within 30 min I have to go and have
serious pains.
I don’t know why this change has
happened, but it is very inconvenient. I
don’t know what I can do to lead a
normal life, and I spent 4 hours reading
the internet tonight and didn’t come up
with all that many useful facts. Much
information about gallbladder diets post
removal contracts each other. Does anyone
know what I can do to help this? Someone
on a previous post said that medamusil
helped them. Would this work for me?
