Hello all,
I had my gallbladder out over nine months ago and for the last two to three months life after the removal has been the worst, I suffer from Diahorea now more than I used to and I have IBS, I also get acid reflux and terrible pain in the stomach most days.

My wife said to me that what I am eating is most of my problem I am not careful, I hardly drink beer or have any spicy food, although I do like biscuits and cake and eat alot of chips and crisps.

I wanted to find out if anyone else has any new symptoms after they had their gallbladder removed, the really unsual symptom I have is occassionaly I will clean my teeth and before I start I clear my mouth I can taste like a reflux taste and then spit out what appears to be light red in colour, this does not happen every night I have slept but occasionaly could this be reflux?
Best wishes to everyone

I would listen to your wife if I was you. Try changing your diet dramatically. Stop the chips and crisps and anything else that has grease and see if you still have the acid reflux. Substitute fruit for the crisps and see if you still get it. I get it when I eat food that iis too greasy.
