even11 27 Posted October 11, 2016 I am 25 days out and the past two days I have had pain on my right side around the rib cage. The pain actually feels like a lactic acid build up, same as what happens when you walk or run too fast. Can gallbladder attacks happen this soon out? I am awaiting a call back from my surgeon office. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tinabina5 3 Posted October 12, 2016 I had gallstones so my gastroenterologist and surgeon thought it best mine was removed at the same time. I hope you don't have to have another procedure. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoCubbies79 31 Posted October 12, 2016 They could if your gallbladder had stones in them previous to the surgery. Did your surgeon have it tested? The pain is more upper abdomen directly under the right breast and extends across the upper abdomen to the left. Hope its just gas pain for you.

GoCubbies79 31 Posted October 12, 2016 Id it happens again before you get the ultrasound keep a mental note of what you ate previous to that pain. Gallbladder attacks usually come on from a fatty meal. Mine happened after I had a chunk of cheese. Sent from my SM-G360T1 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
