Same exact situation. Yes, the surgeon cut your bile duct that is why they installed a stent for 6 weeks. Hopefully, you got a lawyer. If so, what was your reward. I'm still waiting.

I became Septic years later and almost died. If you have any health issues since surgery...blood protein in urine, bowel or g.I. issues...blood triponin or liver enzyme levels too high...go get a full blood work up and have them check for Sepsis. My bile duct closed gradually for years to a pin hole size...it was years before I found out the Dr. nicked my common bile duct.

I had my gallbladder taken out in 2016 and have had 5 sets of bile ducts stents put in. I can not catch a break. I now have bile duct strictures all the time. I have been to the best of doctors and they don't know what to do either and it is miserable and life ruining. sick all the time.

I had my gallbladder taken out 3 years ago, I only had 3 stones but my surgeon was adamant to remove gallbladder. After my surgery surgeon told me my gallbladder was inflamed my op took about 3 hours. I was in hospital for 2 weeks, 4 days after op I had to have a stent put in but I didn't have to go back to have it removed. It wasn't until I saw my medical notes I realised I had acute cholecystitis. All the hospital staff where I was were amazing

Anyone here who recently had a gallbladder removed and they cut into your bile ducts and now have stents that need to be removed? I still have a stent in getting it removed in a few weeks time.

I had this happen in 2015 and I am going to tell you I almost lost my life and my children were almost without a mother and its because the robotic clamp clipped my bile duct. I had to have a drain tube in my abdomen for 2 weeks at home also had a stent removed a month after it was placed but I still somehow have clamps in there. 2 of them and Im not sure they are supposed to be. now I am having high levels in my pancreas and having to do tests to figure out what the problem is. I'm a forgiving person and forgave the first mishap as long as i could go home and be with my family. If this is a mistake this time by not removing the clamps. bc if the duct repaired why do I have clamps still???? I won't be so forgiving this time around. someone or a few WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR f*****g ME UP FOR A LONG TIME!!! Excuse my language but having a stomach ache every time I eat gets old and I'm tired of it.It has slowed my life down tremendously and effected so many things....NO MORE

Many times a stint and/or drain must be placed because of an abscess or a blocked biliary duct.
This is common.

i had severe feet swelling after a gangrenous "gall bladder explosion" and removal. It appears advice to take potassium exacerbated the swelling which was now attributed to infected liver and kidneys. 800+ mg Amoxicillin for 3-4 days corrected it.
