Welcome to the Missing Gall Bladder Club my friend.
Amazing how quick and smart they can remove that troublesome little organ.
Lots of water drinking now in your future.
After the op I used to get a build up of much acid in my stomach and chest (heartburn) so if that happens to you, ask your doctor about Prazoloc, or Omeprazol, as I take one pill every day and no more acid.
You should hopefully be up and about again soon. Let's hope so!
That's a good suggestion. My sister had that same issue and they gave her a pill and she was much better.
Yeah, once the gall bladder is removed, there is nothing that can control the acid. I had to find that out the hard way as I had constant heart burn and an acid taste in mu mouth. My wife also told me that I had a weird metal smell.
Went to see a specialist and it was the end of my problems.
I still drink a lot of water, 8 glasses a day, but that pill is most definitely the answer.
I haven't had any heart burn or acid reflux, and been off pain meds for a few days already, the only issue is the jaundice is still there which should've been gone max 3 days ago but trying to take in more fluids now by force.
Strange that the jaundice lingers.
My acid only started a couple of months afterwards, but I suppose that everyone has different systems and maybe you will not get it at all.
Drinking a lot of water every day is also not my idea of fun, but it helps in a lot of ways.
