Gall bladder removal keyhole surgery two years ago. Only side effect is the occasional (5-6 times a year) but very urgent need to find a loo 5-10 minutes after eating. If I don't feel the urge within those 10 minutes I'm safe - if I do then I dont want the trolley between me and the loo. It's a pretty vicious reaction. Has been mentioned on here before but never heard it mentioned by any medico's. Cannot pin it down to any particular food or drink either.
Take care for a month or so lifting twisting and turning afterwards - GP gave me 5 weeks off although I felt fine after 48 hours. No driving for two weeks - an emergency stop would reopen the keyholes and place the abdomen contents over the inside of the windscreen. Hope this helps.
