I have had mucus my whole life, even before the gall bladder. It was just really bad this time, and kindof freaked me out. Before I got prego with my son, I could count on one hand how many times I had D in my whole life. Then I had my gall-bladder taken out. The surgery wasn't a normal one, because I was hospitalized for 7 days with 3 diff surgeries. After that happened I still had the same symptoms as before the gall bladder was removed. My stomach was hurting and I was have D no matter what I ate. So, he put me on that Cholesramine (sp?) and the helped out so much...I could eat anything with no tummy ache or D at all. Then, a couple of months ago I started having C, followed by intense D and cramping (all in the same morning). I tried to take metamusal caps and got bloaded and more tummy-achy. Then I ate an undercooked pork chop (I guess that is something your never supposed to eat) and got what I thought was 2 weeks of food-poisioning. Also, the dr changed my birth control pills. I switched back to my normal birth control pills, because I though they were making me sick. One of the docs took me off my Cholesramine (she was stupid) and since then it seems every other week I have gotten D. I also have started to get horrible horrible heartburn and constant nausea. Could I have IBS-D with the added effect of no gall bladder? Or is it probably strickly the problem with bile in my tummy? I am so confused! I just want to know what is going on with me!!!
