Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It is quite unusual, that you have pain after removal of gallbladder, and there are no stones in the kidney . Some times oxalate stones may be missed to form image, in scanning.
It may be a urinary tract infection, which also causes pain, and there may be amoebic, or bacterial colitis. Adhesion may be the possible cause.
If urine examination is negative, you can have culture and sensitivity of the urine for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms injection of amikacin, ofloxacin, ornidazole, mefenamic acid, dicyclomine hydrochloride till the diagnosis is established.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
