Should Soy Products Be Avoided If Gallbladder Is Removed And Complains Of Stomachache, Flu Symptoms?
Yes please. My boyfriend had his gallbladder removed approximately a year ago and has had significant discomfort adjusting. Now, he seems to have flu symptoms. Are soy products something he should avoid? He's only drinking liquids and explains, he has pain in his stomach.

hi.
noted history of cholecystectomy and post-operative pain. even those who has been operated on for years could experience pain/discomfort. it should be of tolerable intensity and resolving spontaneously. if the symptom is persistent, a follow-up consult with your doctor is best for physical examination and clinical evaluation. soya is not contraindicated in his case. avoidance of high fat and high cholesterol food is advised.
hope this helps.
good day!!
