Brief Answer:
She needs an abdominal ultrasound

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using HCM to post your health query.
I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.

I suggest that your sister does an abdominal ultrasound to rule out what its happening in the inside of her abdomen.
If her gallbladder has been taken out, for sure the pain its not from it but maybe from the kidneys or liver or bowel.

Also, we may have a better idea depending on the description of the pain and a physical examination that the local doctor can do.

Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please close and rate the answer.

Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
