I'm so sorry this is so tough on you! It doesn't seem fair... we seem to be in the same boat. I am glad my surgeon just popped my little gallbladder out so quickly... I can tell the difference already. I'm not 100% yet, but the days or hours I feel fine, I am really enjoying. Without a gallbladder, I am a bit off with my BMs. I was so constipated, then I was OK for a day or two, now I'm going all of the time (which is normal I guess). It's hard to know what to do b/c I am still taking my Miralax, but with the bile slowly releasing throughout the day, its suppose to be more like a laxative...so this is probably normal. Still, going to the bathroom alot with minimal cramping is still miles ahead of where I was...hang in there! I feel like you're my gallbladder/belly problem twin out there!!
