Guest guest Posted December 2, 2001 Report Share Posted December 2, 2001 Wow, after reading emails about post-op problems with gallbladder removal, I guess I'm really lucky! I have my gallbladder removed about 10 years ago. When I was released from the hospital, I had horrible diarrhea. It finally got to the point where my surgeon prescribed lomitril (I think that's what it was). Within a day, it was nearly gone. Since then, I haven't had any problems with diarrhea unless I was sick. I can eat everything just fine with no problems unless I eat alot of garlic or grease. Even then, I just get nauseous, no diarrhea. I didn't know people could have long-term poo poo problems after gallbladder removal. Off topic, I have a female question to ask... ladies, please scroll down... (Guys, please don't!!!) ... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. I think I have my first infection down there! I have horrible itching. No smell or stuff coming out, just itching. At first, it was ok because if I moved my hips a certain way... well... let's just say I was a happy camper! (Look, no hands!)... But now it's really bad itching. I bought monostat 3 and used it last night. I slept 4 hours and when I woke up, I had been scratching. Still itches and is sore now when I pee... I have to wait until tonight to use the creme again - that's so many hours away! Wahhhhh! I also bought some wipes with anti-itch lotion on it but I can use only 4 per day. Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Any advice? Thanks, dee __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
