Brief answer....explained below
Detailed answer.....
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and seen your reports.
Your last report dated 22nd August shows slightly high leucocyte counts along with slightly low levels of calcium as well as proteins.
High leucocyte counts indicate infection and is generally accompanied by fever.
If your fever is absent,then there is nothing to worry on this account.
As far as calcium and proteins are concerned,you would need to take care of their intake.
You can talk to your doctor for prescription of those supplements.
As far as your persistence of symptoms are concerned,they take some time to go because the reservoir of bile,the gall bladder,is gone and hence there is increased flow of bile in your intestines.
This flow results in gastritis and esophagitis as well as some diarrhoea and pain abdomen.
Just wait and watch and keep reporting to your treating your doctor.
You shall be all right soon.
There is nothing to worry anything about your post operative situation as well as reports.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
