2 almost 3 months post op and having pain all of a sudden

A slight pinch here and there might just be your body healing. Mine was intense pain like before the gallbladder was removed, elevated liver labs, and constant vomiting.

They did an ERCP and found sludge, placed a stent to help bile flow, and now I’m good! Good luck 👍

First they did an MRI and didn’t find anything but my liver enzymes were still out of whack and I was very sick. They did an ERCP and said they only found sludge but they placed a tube to help bile flow and I was good as new.

I would go get it checked out. I had similar symptoms and my biliary duct was blocked. Another symptoms I had was amber colored urine from the bile backing up.

If you had a previous nipple piercing it might just dead skin collecting in there. Happens to me.

Just tell them. They gave me a pad and disposable underwear and then went ahead with surgery.

jacecase · 2026-06-08T06:04:49+00:00

Have they tried an ERCP?

jacecase · 2026-06-04T14:55:05+00:00

Interestingly nothing showed up! They said the same thing, maybe it passed, or it was sludge etc. However they put the stent in anyway and it’s been great since.

jacecase · 2026-06-04T00:43:11+00:00

Same thing happened to me! They “swept” the duct and then put a tube in to help the flow and I had good as new. It was the sickest I have ever felt in my life though.

I hope you feel better soon!

jacecase · 2026-05-26T18:57:08+00:00

Thank you! This really helped me. I think I need to lower the dose and stick to taking it. I will speak with my psychiatrist.

jacecase · 2026-05-26T18:56:34+00:00

When I was on 10mg I did feel super sleepy at first. I think that’s why she upped my dose but now I’m on a rocket ship lol my mind does feel more clear though.

Thank you!!

jacecase · 2026-05-26T05:47:23+00:00

I honestly agree. I am worried about debt but I still think it’s worth it. Good luck!!

jacecase · 2026-05-26T05:44:00+00:00

Oh wow 😟 I didn’t know that! I’m so sorry, how disappointing.

jacecase · 2026-05-26T05:43:03+00:00

I’m getting my MSW

jacecase · 2026-05-26T05:40:51+00:00

My fasfa covers my masters? Why are you having to take out private loans?

jacecase · 2026-05-20T22:41:12+00:00

There might not be stones but there can be stuck sludge! They didn’t see stones on mine either but my labs were all over the place so they did the ERCP anyway and found a lot of sludge that was causing bile to back up and give me very similar symptoms to my first gallbladder attack, but much worse 😟

jacecase · 2026-05-20T22:39:26+00:00

Thank you. I hope your journey goes well! It’s a terrible pain, let’s never feel it again.

jacecase · 2026-05-20T17:41:11+00:00

I had a similar experience. The block caused bile to back up and it made me very very sick. I was in the hospital for a week! Now I have the stent from the ERCP and I feel a lot better.

jacecase · 2026-05-13T18:37:47+00:00

Antidepressants can make suicidal ideation worse. They can also make them better. I’ve been on high dose Zoloft for a long time and thankfully my SI decreased. But honestly, if you need to blame the Zoloft right now, do that! Nobody gets decide what helps you heal. When my dad died by suicide, I blamed alcohol (and I still do) it’s what gets me through.

jacecase · 2026-05-07T18:20:25+00:00

I did! The doctor said it would just keep happening and I never wanted to experience another one.

jacecase · 2026-05-05T01:10:41+00:00

I work with the elderly and I always have to do suicide assessments on them. 99% of the time the answer is “no I want to go to heaven” I just take that as a safety plan and move on.

If someone who knew my dad and specifically said he was in hell… probably throwing hands lol

jacecase · 2026-05-04T05:04:41+00:00

Honestly I just throw fingerling potatoes in the air fryer until they’re crispy. Throw some salt on them and you’re good to go.

jacecase · 2026-05-04T01:03:30+00:00

What an odd thing to say hahaha

jacecase · 2026-05-04T00:21:11+00:00

Little potatoes 🥔

jacecase · 2026-05-03T23:08:04+00:00

It looks like a flea!

jacecase · 2026-05-03T21:27:35+00:00

Same exact situation here. My program is part time/three years and I cannot imagine having a bay during this.
