I 26F got my gallbladder removed last Friday (6 days post op). Since yesterday, when I get up and move around too much, I start to feel very faint. I'm wondering if this has to do with my period starting as I started yesterday and I've been bleeding somewhat heavy. I haven't fainted but it's just an awful feeling. I don't feel it when I'm laying down. Has anyone else dealt with this?
Hey there,
I 26F had my gallbladder removed 5 days ago now. My surgeons notes said that I could bathe five days after surgery but that didn't sound right so I looked it up. Everything I read says 2 to 4 weeks for baths after gallbladder removal. What did your surgeons say about baths? I just started my period and I'm dying to get in a hot bath.
I got my gallbladder removed via laparoscopy Friday, April 24th. I had biliary dyskinesia with a 12% EF. Since then I have been so incredibly sore. The past couple days have been the incisions that were sore but today it's sore where my gallbladder used to be. Like really sore, like hurts to breathe to deep sore. I've been taking my hydrocodone acetaminophen as prescribed but I just can't help but wonder if this pain is normal? I have health anxiety and my brain automatically goes to something is wrong. How long did you guys have pain post op? Did you experience what I'm experiencing?
Update: I messaged my surgeon on my chart about it and they gave me a call back and said it was not normal to have this pain and if its not better by tomorrow, I need to go to the ER. This freaks me out quite a bit.
