Post-Gallbladder Surgery Issues: Seeking Advice

Hello! I am a 23 year old momma of a 1 year old. I had surgery about a year and some months ago to remove my gallbladder after having gallstones. Since then I have had extreme pain in my stomach after eating, constant passing of bile, and constant urge to use the restroom quickly after I eat. I am looking for others who might share the same issues as I do, and maybe share some knowledge on what they might do to help.

I don't have any personal experience with these particular symptoms, but I'm studying biomedical engineering rn and your description got me thinking about the sphincter of oddi (which controls how much bile is released into the small intestines). I would look into sphincter of oddi dysfunction, see if it is worth bringing up to your doctor. Based on a little research of my own it seems like it is definitely a possibility. Hope this helps!
