nursemichelle7 14 Posted December 25, 2016 I've read a few posts about people who had their gallbladder removed after being sleeved. What were your pain symptoms? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dashofpixiedust8 1,469 Posted December 25, 2016 Extreme nausea with some vomiting was my main symptom. Also when it acted up I was in so much pain I couldn't move and had to be taken to the ER in an ambulance. That pain only lasted 7 hours though. They found the issue with my gallbladder a few days later. The nausea never stopped. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luce587 48 Posted December 25, 2016 I had horrendous pain in the area of my stomach between my ribcage, radiating across the righthand side and into my back. It hurt it breathe deeply and could last hours. I would sleep upright if it occurred during the night. I would also vomit- food that had been eaten hours before and always lots of bile. Because I was a newly banded person, I assumed my food was stuck and let this go on for about 9 months before the attacks came thick and fast, alerting my physician (who had seen me during attacks but assumed I was eating the wrong things and not chewing enough). An ultrasound showed a gallbladder chock full of stones. I had my gallbladder out about 3 weeks later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
