How long ago was his surgery? The night I had mine I could not stop vomiting, I could not take any medication because I was throwing up for 14 hours. The problem is that without a gallbladder the bile has no storage tank and is constantly dripping into the digestive system. So if he is vomiting he has an endless supply and can't stop. He needs a rectal suppository like compozine to stop the vomiting and then some popsicles to try to get rehydrated or gatorade before trying to eat any liquids like broth or yoghurts. The best things he can do once he gets that under control are ibuprofen (if he can take it) and stretching in the shower (although it will hurt like h e double hocey sticks). I had a great surgeon and he was right was he said this surgery will defintely take 2-3 weeks to recover from and that's pushing yourself to do the stretching and walking every day.

I wish my doctor had told me about the risks of having the gall bladder removed. He just told me it was an unnecessary body part. Apparently, I am one of the 10 per cent that will always have diarrhea. I have allergic reactions to so many meds that now I don't know what to do. :(
