Gall Bladder Posted: 01-24-06 16:30pm
I hope someone can help me. About a year
ago, I started having classic symptoms of
gall stones. The chronic constipation
followed by chronic diarrhea. The
abnormal symptom was constant vomiting.
I had my gall bladder taken out december
23, 2005, and since then, I have done
nothing but throw up. I have lost 35
lbs, 10 in the last 2 weeks. Can anybody
tell me what's up with this or has anybody
been in a similar situation? Something
else is obviously wrong, but what? Oh,
also my md doesn't really seem to be all
that bothered. He put me on a nausea
patch and wants to see me again in 6
weeks. Is that normal?
Thanks for your help!

Loss of weight is not unusual. Had gall
bladder taken out in 2002 and went from
195 to 161. But I did not have your
problem for as long as you.
Part of problem is you don't have gall
bladder to break down fat as before as I
was told and it goes through some but not
all people. If you can't get a better
answer here try;
then go to health & fitness category
category. There you will find further
breakdown. There are a number of doctors
there you can ask. Their is no fee or
registration.
Hope this helps

Thank you so much for your help! I will
check out that web site and see if I can
get anymore detailed answers!
P.S. I'm not complaining about the
weight loss! I needed it anyway!

Well I dropped from 195 to 161 and then it
stopped. It also reduced my cholestorel
to normal so that part was fine.
