Gallbladder issues after sleeve or gastric bypass

[slim46 25]

I've noticed that people who have been sleeved or bypass end up having to have their gallbladder removed. The gallbladder is working extra hard on all the Protein intake. So gallstones become an issue. Dr s differ. Some remove the gallbladder with the sleeve or bypass why others wait and have to go in later to remove the gallbladder. Bothe my daughter and myself have had to have our gallbladder removed and now we re having issues with kidney stones. My girlfriend and her daughter also had the same issues

I'm 3 months post op and had a gallbladder attack on Monday. I'm hoping that I won't have to have it taken out though.

What do gallbladder problems feel like - I've read WebMD - but I'd like to hear what you experienced. Im about 7 weeks out and last night after dinner I got this pain in the center upper stomach area that wont go away. Talked to my PA who said to try Pepto and Pepcid and if its still there to the ER and have my gallbladder scanned. Great!!

That was my only problem post op. Stupid army docs refused to do an ultrasound (budget cuts) even tho it was such a common post op problem; so after 6 er visits in 3 months I went to another hospital and they found gallstones right away. After 3 months of 10 gallstone attacks i had to deal with the pain 2 more weeks before getting it removed. Once they removed it they saw a gallstone twice as large as the duct going down the gallbladder pop out. Once I had it taken out tho I instantly felt better (minus surgery recocery lol) Absolutely reccomend getting it taken out. Its only going to cause problems, not help

My attacks were far worse than labor. It felt tlike I couldnt breathe, I vomitted 3 different times, and got the sweats. I couldnt stand, sit, or bend. There was no relief. Its felt on the right side of my chest under my breast and my back. Its a sharp stabbing pain. They lasted from a few minites to hours before getting help. Nothing eould relieve it but lots of pain meds and timd

Does it feel like a gnawing pain center of your body and then pain under right breast? I couldn't stand sit or walk when this pain comes on?

I had this happen last week. Exactly the same symptoms. When I described it to my husband I said it was far worse than labor pains. I'm glad I have idea now what it may be. Scared me to death.
