5 weeks out and Pain in upper abdomen

[lynmcg 9]

Hopefully someone can shed light on what’s happening. I’m 5 weeks post op and today I’ve had horrible constant pain in my upper abdomen. Every time I eat the pain is worse, I’ve only had my shake and couldn’t finish it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This sounds like it might be your gallbladder. Regardless you should see a doctor.

Hi, I’m scheduling for a ultrasound and bloodwork. He thinks it was a gallbladder attack. Good luck with your appointment and I hope you feel better.
