A member asked:
Had cholecystectomy in 2011. have been having upper right quad pain and persistant diarrhea and loose stools ever since. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No and yes: Loose stools after a cholecystectomy is not uncommon. Ruq pain post-op this many years out is abnormal. You should go see a doctor for that.
