Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Hi, I had my gall bladder removed in august 2001. It was about 6 months after my surgery that I started getting unexplained pain in my left knee. It was a piercing ache when just sitting or laying down, but I had no strength in my knee, and the ache would bring tears to my eyes if I had to walk. I saw a couple of chiropractors and a physio Therapist my PCP and my GI about it, and the reason for it was that it was a referred pain. They told me that the sensors that are usually attached to my gall bladder were left intact and that it was sending messages to my brain which was kind enough to send pain waves to my left knee. I had tests done for arthritis or other problems with my knee, but it was all normal. Chiro treatments didn't work, or even help with the pain..but after 8 months itjust disappeared.
