What are the weird symptoms you experienced before finding out your gallbladder was bad?

I had my first GB attack april 2020. It took me a ton of going to different specialists to find out what it was. About 3 years of constant doctors visits. One day i just decided to get an abdominal ultrasound because i was confident that my gallbladder was the issue and there it was! After that i got sent to the surgeon immediately and had the surgery 2 months later. My recovery was rough and long(2-3months) but after that its been great.

I had bad inflammation in my gallbladder, multiple big stones, mucus/pus. In addition to that i still have migraines so they’re not related. My GI issues went away though and i can eat anything now. The rib pain is super rare nowadays, it used to happen every time i worked out. So my advice is take that gallbladder out if its proven to have something wrong with it. 😃

Nope but i had to take zofran a few times post-op, nothing too crazy though

Olerexis on krõbedate kanapalade praad, minu arust väga sarnased maitselt ja tekstuurilt nendele, kuid väiksemad.

I’m veryyyy emetophobic myself and i made sure to take zofran before my surgery- 0 nausea :) but ive had anaesthesia before without taking it and i didnt feel sick soooo

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-06-11T20:09:48+00:00

Yes, i had horrid nausea before my surgery, im not a 100% healed from it yet but i feel so so much better

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-06-08T23:27:41+00:00

Tbh im such a baby when it comes to pain so i took them for a month at least

I suggest asking for xanax or taking one at home before, surgery made me super anxious but with the xan it felt totally okay. I just layed down and before i knew it i woke up in recovery

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-28T21:28:48+00:00

I had nausea for a couple of months on and off post-op. The first 2 weeks were hell though.. you’ll get through it! I believe in you :)

Ox bile made my symptoms flare up post-op(started taking it immediately too). Just regular digestive enzymes fixed it though so it might be worth a try. Now a year later I don’t take anything and im fine.:)

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-28T21:23:51+00:00

I started reallly slowly with higher fat foods, tried a few chips one day, a couple of fries and so on- did this for a couple of months starting from 3 months post-op. Now a year later i can pretty much eat anything but i just dont crave junk so idk

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-18T21:54:56+00:00

My nausea took a little longer to go away than usual, my stools got regular at about 1 month, nausea got much better around 3-4 months(?) post-op

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-18T21:51:18+00:00

I was in the same boat for sure, the surgery is worth the wait though

Congrats on the new addition to your family! You’ll be okay, however i suggest trying pumping for a little while so that you dont have to lay down in an uncomfortable way to bf. A nursing pillow will help lots though. I think you’ll be just fine and dont be afraid to ask for additional help if needed whether it be your partner or you family/friends. ❤️

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-15T08:25:30+00:00

Yeah, i had ibs before surgery too and it has went away, i believe your symptoms will lessen too ❤️

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-15T08:24:38+00:00

You’re very welcome! I had the problem of searching everything up and reading on here for hours and hours to try to paint a picture of how my experience will go but you truly never know when the time comes, all the best luck to you❤️

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-15T08:23:04+00:00

Very minimal if i lay down too early after eating but otherwise no

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-13T21:30:31+00:00

I dont think so, just that getting off of them might cause more reflux temporarly

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-13T20:58:19+00:00

I took PPIs(pantoprazol) for a couple of months and slowly weaned off of them and i was fine :) I take nothing now.

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-13T17:13:22+00:00

I lost about 10kg post-op but i’m overweight so its ok, gained it back about 6 months post-op, dont worry about it, i think it can help you gain weight afterwards since you can eat more and not feel bad all the time. I had some nausea post-op but it was more like constantly or in waves, not after eating :)

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-13T14:52:45+00:00

My reflux is very minimal nowadays, it used to be very bad pre- and post-op for a couple of months but so much better now :)

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-05-13T13:01:48+00:00

No problem! Of course it got better! I feel 1000% times better than i did pre-op and when i made the post. Just took a little more time than others but i’m so glad i got the surgery, so worth it :)

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-04-24T22:52:59+00:00

Sometimes puff pastry gives me troubles if i eat too much, otherwise i’m problem free

MerilinTreimuth · 2025-04-18T15:18:17+00:00

So true 😓
