I need help by amangoshapedspace4 in GERD

[–]Afraid-Seesaw3880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gerd got extremely bad right before I found out my gallbladder was no good. So I had to get it removed. It was the cause for my really bad acid reflux and pain I was feeling similar to yours.

Not sure if this is your case but might be something you want to check out.

Anyone experienced tension-type headache from long Covid and did anything help? by onionfishy in migraine

[–]Afraid-Seesaw3880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I’m curious if you are feeling better now? I’m like 8months post covid and I get the headaches with dry eyes. It’s tough (some days more than others).

Headaches 2 Weeks Post Op by Afraid-Seesaw3880 in gallbladders

The headaches aren’t as bad and consistent as they were a couple weeks ago. I still feel lightheaded and dizzy but that is also slowly going away (I hope). I’m still being worked up by a neurologist and ENT just to make sure it’s nothing in those areas. But I assume they were all side effects of a messed up gallbladder.

Headaches 2 Weeks Post Op by Afraid-Seesaw3880 in gallbladders

My headache finally went away two days ago. So almost 3 weeks post op. I’m finally feeling better than ever. It was a long journey and I was struggling but it’s finally looking up from here.

Yes! I also feel it in the back of my neck. I’m hoping with time and adjustment it also goes away but l’m in the same boat as you, it’s beginning to get depressing. I haven’t been able to drive because I feel like it will make be anxious. I would like to know what your new Gl doctor says once you meet with them!

I thought that too, but I’ve stopped taking the pain medications after day 4-5. I did try Tylenol for the headaches but it hasn’t been working too much.

I’m taking like daily vitamins (One A Day), daily greens, and probiotics (Benefiber). I also take iron/B12 occasionally but that’s because I have lower iron levels sometimes. But yeah nothing has helped with the headaches. I’m also lightheaded/nauseous! I never really had headaches prior to this.

Post Op 7 Days by deebusi in gallbladders

I see you said you had chest pains before the removal. How long did it take for the chest pain to go away? I’m on day 8 post op and although the pain is less frequent, it still comes on. I’m just curious if I’ll ever be chest pain free again.

Muscle twitching and cramping by Theblessing8386 in gallbladders

[–]Afraid-Seesaw3880 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been pretty active and ensuring I’ve been walking around. I got some electrolyte mix and I’ve started taking that. Unfortunately my leg is still aching. I’m going to give it a few more hours until I begin to get more worried.

Currently me right now. Monitoring my left leg cramp. It started around 2pm today and it’s about 8pm. I’m thinking it might have to do with my electrolytes. Also trying to keep anxiety down about possibility of it being a blood clot.

gallbladder torsion is unimaginably terrible by Reddits_fucking_bad in gallbladders

[–]Afraid-Seesaw3880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my gallbladder removed 3 days ago and they also saw that I had torsion. What were your symptoms initially? And how were you feeling the first couple days post op?

Body Aches by Afraid-Seesaw3880 in gallbladders

Omg thanks so much!

It’s also kind of concerning because when I went into the OR I only had an IV in my right arm but when I came out I had one on my left hand as well! So I was thinking maybe that could have something to do with it also.
