Hello, I had my gallbladder removed and haven’t suffered any complications or side effects but I do know a little about it. Even if the gallbladder is removed, bile will still be produced because it is not made by the gallbladder but by the liver.
Gallbaldder only serves to store bile until it is expelled for digestion. When gallbladder is gone, bile will be kept by the liver.
Usually, there are no problems but in some cases, liver may become weak due to overwork and this could result in tiredness and fatigue.
Because it will take some time for the things to start working normally, bile may be released slower and digestion may be a problem at first, and she may suffer from constipation or gas and bloating.
Diarrhea could be a side effect of gallbladder removal as bile would be constantly leaking in the intestines.
As far as nutrition goes, I have kept the program that I had when I had the gallstones. I do indulge myself from time to time but I try to eat low fat foods, since this is contributing to general health not just digestion.
I hope everything goes well with your wife. |
