From what you say it was not your gallbladder the cause of your pain before removing it. You re not the first case, we hear and see. Many times pain in "the gallbladder place" is caused by the bowel as a sign of what we call Irritable Bowel Syndrome, so pay more attention to your bowel. An antispastic like No-Spa i.e can help you maybe, so I'd recommend to try it on.
