Hello there!
Thank you for asking. Once gall ballder removed. All these symptoms you are facing are perfectly normal and natural. They are post surgical complaints and they will eventually go. Now you need a diet modification avoiding fats using medium chain fatty acids only as there is no gall bladder to manage that . Reduce the quantity if meal. Increase its freequency, Use soft and fibrous diet. And stay in touch with your gastro enterologist. These charlie horses are nothing but hungry Spasmodic intestines craving for Gallbladders trickling donations of Bile. Which tey miss now. They will learn to accomodate.

One can live with out gall bladder easily.

Take care
Regards
Dr S Khan
