Symptom relief after surgery

[Guest guest]

Hello all

I have just spent 2 days trawling through this forum it was a really

interesting read and has given me a lot to work with.

I have basically been looking for the different symptoms people

experience with Gallstones. I myself have been diagnosed with a lot of

gallstones after 8 months of nagging different doctors.

My Symptoms are mainly

1 instance of bilary colic

Major cramping in the abdomen (gets worse after eating) but is

constantly a crampy feeling all day.

Pain on the right side (sore to press most of the time) and sometimes

left side under the ribs

Pain in my right shoulder and neck

And some times the cramps move into my chest tightning my chest making

it harder to breath.

I have had all the heart checked out and a lot of GI test the only

thing wrong so far is a lot of gallstones. Of course the surgeon wants

to take it out he is confident that they are the cause of all my

symptoms saying that the text book symptoms are not always the case

and gallstones can give a lot of different symptoms.

If you all could explain your symptoms also if there are any out there

who have had the surgery could you explain your symptoms also and

whiter or not the surgery was successful for you.

Many thanks
