After having my gallbladder removed in July, I am still suffering from the same symtoms on worse. Such as nausea, vomiting, whichI have never had a problem with all my life. This morning I was forced to vomit and symyltaeously do a bowel movement. which alternates between small stools and diaareah. I feel very weak and sometimes unbalanced and maybe dizzi. I have been under a great deal of stress and I do drink alcohol. I am worried and think I have a real digestive problem. the sergery I had was with those 4 little incisions. I have been told, prior to the sergery that I have a fatty liver. I feel sick, am afraid to eat. this morning after breakfast, juice, tea, bran cerial with lactaid milk (very little).I wonder if I have a liver, or pancreas problem or some kind of blockage.

 

Optional Information:
Female, Age: 66, New Jersey

Already Tried:
carafate, which constipates me and bloats me, librax, and just recent, nexium, which appears to help. I have been vomiting more often .

You are most likely to be suffering from Post-Cholecystectomy Syndrome.

This is characterised by nausea, gas, bloating, and sometimes diarrhea. PCS is also often associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or IBS.

You need to discuss with your doctor about PCS. There are a wide range of treatment options available, you can dicuss these with him.
