>Don't for one moment believe those doctors whom tell you that it is something you ate! I have been through everything that everyone is putting up on this web site and I can honestly tell you all that no matter what the doctors tell you that they feel may work, it is always temporary! That is the problem with this strange disease or problem. I have been to hundreds of gastroenterologist and they don't know! They are guessing on us and they don't have a clue what we all are going through, after the removal of our gallbladder! But I have seen over the years of talking to people that all of us have alot of things in common. Starting with the removal of our gallbladder. Next, the cramps and pain ect.... It is enough of us out there to stand up and demand answers, before others wind up like us! Each day, more and more people are going under the knife getting their gallbladder removed, with the false sense of reality that there are agreat deal of us not coming out of this ordeal unscaved! Just as there are demands for more research for cancer victims and Ms victims,
there should be gallbladder surgery gone wrong victims demanding answers and more treatments to all these symptoms after the fact! I can tell you that I am frustrated as hell! I have been given vioxx, zoloft, bentyl, kutrase, levsin, paxil cr and metamucil, just to name a few. Don't believe everything your doctor tells you. Some of these drugs have really bad side effects that may be just as bad as the symptoms!

I agree 100%. We should all band together to raise awareness about the fact that doctors withhold information and lie about gall bladder removal. They say you don't need your gall bladder which is totally untrue - just because you can live without it doesn't mean you don't NEED it!!! Also, they hardly ever tell you what to expect after the surgery. I complained to my surgeon and he got tired of hearing from me and told me he thought I needed a boyfriend... how's that for compassion!! Sometimes surgery is necessary, but way too many surgeries are performed now that laparascopic surgery is so readily available. Doctors need to back off on throwing people on the operating table so quickly AND make sure they give us proper information to make informed decisions.

I had my gb out about 1 1/2 years ago. Ever since then I have severe constipation, cramping and have been unable to loose the weight. I have tried every laxitive on the market and even some that weren't. The doctors think that I am crazy and tell me that it is all in my head. The pain is unreal and the best way that I know how to describe it is that it's worse than labor. I have never had problems like this in the past it all started after the surgery. I don't know how these doctors can think that I am making this up. You can't just not shit! It is going to come out one way or another. I am stuck and nothing is working now. Has anyone experienced this problem? Please I am desperate I am going to go through some therapy for my rectum and if it doesn't work my only option then is a cholostomy bag. I am 21 and a mother and wife. I don't want to put myself or my family through that. Any advise would be well appreciated.
