I had gallbladder surgery in 1992. I was one of the first that had laproscopic surgery to remove the gallbladder. Ever since I had it removed I have continued to have attacks as if I had a gallstone but the doctors kept telling me I couldn't have gallstones because I didn't have a gallbladder. Finally this year I couldn't take it anymore and a doctor did an ultrasound and an ERCP but only to my stomach. He thought I had GERD but found I had no damage which makes sense because it isn't reflux disease. He still prescribed me Kapidex which helped for a while but then last week I had another attack. I have finally convinced another doctor to order the MRCP. I will be having it very soon and I will report back the findings. I have to find a cure for this, I'm so tired of feeling like this after so many years.
Don't know if it's true, but read you can get gallstones in your liver. Read it on some medical site online. Does anyone know if this is true? I would get a second opinion and maybe a third.
Hi guys! I'm so glad to find this site, been reading through and some of this gallstone stuff fasinates me. In August 2009 I had surgery to remove my gallbladder because of gallstones. This was my very first surgery. I had the cut across my tummy as the doctors said some of the gallstones had come out of my gallbladder. Very hard after surgery as I felt like my body had been drained from all the blood tests and taking pills, i was emotionally stressed. A month later I had to go in again to remove more stones found in my common bile duct, oh nooo it was hell all over again!! But this time they just put something down my throat to crush the stone. Anyways having gallstones was a nightmare with the pain a VERY VERY excruciating pain i almost didn't want to live having to deal with this pain!! They took out 25 stones out all together. I thought long and hard that this time I will change my eating habits, im 27 yrs old with a whole live in front of me. And I wanna be here for my children, I have lost some weight, am active and changed my eating habits. Its a struggle to hold back on some foods but I will make it!:) The surgery took its toll on me but I think for me, was that the worst has gone.I can relate to some comments I've been reading here. And just glad I can share something about what I went through with people who have gone through the same thing.
I also had my gallbladder removed in May of 2003. They also kept telling me to go home,and come back if my syptoms persisted. I refused, I am so greatful i went with my instincts because if I would have my gallbladder would have ruptured with infection, and instead of having lapripsopic surgery they would have had to cut me from top to bottom to remove all of the infection, and I could have died. That is why I always tell everyone now to go with your instincts, they are always right.
does for you! I am 32 yrs old, and sometimes I feel like I'm 82 with all these problems. Good Luck!!
Hey all please check Gall stone cleanse using natural ways ie olive oil and lemon juice theorapy.
I did too. Did the flush, was on a strict diet for 6 months+ and when i was done, i had to do a series of warm water enemas, and i had to drink half a cup of olive oil with half a cup of 100% organic apple juice, and i passed a LOT of stones! But after about 3 months, the pain was back with a vengence, and i had continued to eat clean, so I knew that was not the problem. Went to the doctor, and they found that my gallbladder was swollen and becoming infected. Had to have surgery ASAP, to have my gallbladder removed. But yet even now, my problems are not over, still having pain like i had before. WILL IT EVER END?????
I went to my appt yesterday, dr said my ultrasound was fine, checked my blood wrk, said i had an infection in my stomach called H. Pylori. Gave me 3 diff antibiotics that i have to take for 14 days. Said that was what was causing the pain. Idk if its true though. I came home and Googled it, some of the symtoms are what i feel but not all. Not to mention what i read said that people with this infection feel pain when their stomachs are empty, but the pain is relieved after they eat. Not me, as long as my belly is empty i feel fine, just hungry, once i eat is when the pain starts. Idk what to do. The meds were $108.41 with my ins, without it would have cost me $457.99. Thats a lot of money for me. i hate to think that i might have spent money for meds that i dnt need. So if any of you have any info on this infection or on what it might be thats wrong with me please please please reply to me? My name is Ruthie thank you!
I had that too before I found out I had gallstones. Everytime I ate the pain would come. And when I didnt eat it would be fine. Doctors said that the pain would start when I'd eat fatty foods. I had this pain for at least 3 mths before I went to the doctors and they told me I had gallstones, and by that time the pain was everyday!! SERIOUS i'd lie in bed for a whole day. Thinking it was a sore stomach or something.
I had gallbladder removal surgery on dec 17 of last year. Afterward i still had pain, went back to the dr, he ordered an ultrasound, said he didnt find anything, did bloodwrk to, thats where he found that i had H. Pylori, finished those meds, still in pain, finally he sent me to a GI dr, he did a colonoscopy and a endoscopy, now im waiting on those results, i honestly dont kno what to do any more, im in way to much pain. I honestly just go in2 the bathroom and cry. this is ridiculous. Sometimes i feel like im goin crzy. Im tired of all this waiting. The whole time im in pain. And you know, after i found out that i had gallstones, i did a flush, completely changed im diet, iv stuck with it, but it dnt make a difference. The other day i ate a salad, no dressing, and rite afterward, my stomach started hurtin, had to go to the bathroom, and i kno this is more info then you need, but i had major diahrrea, and honestly, that salad came out lookin the same way it did when it went it. wtf? Im telling you i just dnt kno what to do anymore. If any1 has any info that can help me, plz reply. thank you!
I went through a year of having three to four attacks a week untill I found. Out I could request an ultrasound cause the doctors kept saying it was gas! Once I had the ultra sound, sure enough a huge stone. I had it removed in 2004 and now 2010 I'm starting to having the same attacks and going for an ultra sound again to find out. Request an ultrasound because it is a hard one to determine for doctors.
My 92 year old mother had gallbladder removal in the 60s, and this last year they found what they thought was a tumor on her liver to be 10 gallstones in the bile duct. They took them out without surgery, going in through her mouth and retrieving one stone at a time. She's doing great. But YES, you can have gallstones after surgery.
I agree and know for certain that you CAN have gall stones after gallbladder removal. I had my gallbladder removed in 1975 and still to this day produce gall stones on occasion. I don't eat fatty foods either! I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 1975, as well; so I have other intestinal issues.
Im so sorry to everyone that seems to be going threw the same thing that i going threw. I have my drs appt tomorow morning at 8:15. I fear that he will tell me everything is normal. But Im not leaving there until he figures out wtf is wrong with me. I was told that everything would go back to normal after my surgery, and well it didn't. I hurt all the time, that pain that starts in your stomach shoots to your right shoulder and neck and makes your entire right arm hurt. And Ive been throwing up everything i eat and drink, including water. I hate this. Iv gone all day today with out eating cuz the pain is to bad. All i wanna do is cry, cuz it was suppose to be better and its not. These damn attacks are jsut to much. I swear the freaking dr better do something. I'll let you all know what the dr tells me tomorrow. Thanx so much everyone that shared their story on this website cuz it really has helped me. I know exactly what to tell the dr tomorrow. But i am truely sorry for all you that are still in so much pain, i can relate. :( Oh by the way i had my surgery only 2 months ago it will be 3 on the 17 of march. Thanx again.
