Seeking help/advice. I'm a 37 year old female who had her gallbladder removed July 22, 2016. 48 hours after the surgery I was nauseous and vomiting (bile mostly). I also had sever insomnia. It's now been almost 9 months and I've had almost every test under the sun done and still no answers. At it's all-time worst about a month or so after the surgery I went into fight or flight mode and had severe nausea, racing heartbeat, anxiety, jitters and depression. No doubt brought by feeling hopeless. :( At the time of the surgery I was 4 months postpartum. A VERY happy first time mom. 

My current symptoms are daily nausea (usually in the morning) and bouts of anxiety, depression, dizziness, headaches and what i call jitters in my stomach. 

If anyone has gone through something similar and come out the other side or have recommendations for medications please post back to me. I'm currently remeron and klonopin, and considering THC. Please do not post anything discouraging as my heart just can't take it. :(

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP!!!

You have to accept that it is your mind that's doing this to you. I've been suffering from the same going on four years after the same surgery. I've been told by several doctors that the surgery was successful, but I've looked at every reasonable avenue for the cause. I think that it's from the psychological trauma of the surgery. Please consider looking into psychiatric help with this. Journaling and speaking to others who have gone through something similar have helped. I'm sorry that this isn't a cure and that I can't really offer anything better.

Consider the vagus nerve has contributed to the anxiety and or depression.
I especially had the feeling of doom before and after bowel movement following gall bladder removal surgery.
