Hi! I had my gall bladder out 3 weeks ago Friday & I feel good introducing different foods a little at a time. Seems ok; however, before I had my gall bladder my most common symptom was burping after anything I ate or drank & sometimes feels like pressure in my chest. I'm so frustrated with this symptom. I figured it would go away. Anyone else have this issue?
Were you checked for a hiatal hernia too?
No I don't think so? I've had a Hida scan for GB & upper GI with Barium. Not sure what test would come to that conclusion?
It's still early days for you. You need to give your body time to adjust to not having a gallbladder. It could be you have something else going on like a hiatus hernia or an ulcer. Give it time and if it doesn't resolve, see your GP. I was prescribed Omeprazole whilst recovering from cholecystectomy and liver resection which helps. My husband takes something similar for his hiatus hernia.
