What Causes Bouts Of Extreme Pain Under The Breasts Post Gallbladder Removal?
I had gastric bypass 7 years ago (12/1/2008) Gallbladder out in 2010 and now having very bad attacks up high under breast that take my breathe for at least 5 min . Walking and breathing soon relieves them. I went back to my bypass doctor. Had upper GI and also Endoscopy and he said all he saw was a small hernia. I am having trouble swallowing meats and I m gaining weight.
