Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
2 1/2 weeks after gallbladder removal I started getting dizzy. It subsides when I turn my head quickly. I notice that a lot of people have persistant dizziness or vertigo following gallbladder surgery. I've been to the doctor who recommended sinus rince and decongestant. What do you think?
Hello. I understand the problem that you are going through. Dizziness and vertigo are unrelated to Cholecystectomy i.e. removal of gall bladder. This seems to be a pure coincidence which you have noticed. Investigations should be done to find out the cause of dizziness. Hope you get well soon. Thank you.
