Before having my gall bladder removed I often had, I guess, what is call irritable bowel syndrome.
I often got sudden stomach cramps and bm urges that wouldn't go away and kept me rushing
to the toilet. After having the surgery to remove my gall bladder I now am either constipated or
I have diarrhea like bowel movements. The stomach cramps and strong urges are not so bad
anymore, but I wondered if anyone else has experienced constipation and/or diarrhea
associated with gall bladder removal. If so, are you taking any medications to aid in digestion?
