A member asked:
I do not have a gallbladder and i tend to get a lot of gas and bloat. i sometimes wake up with it in the morning. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be normal: Gallbladder stores bile, which is produced by the liver. Bile helps with the absorption of fats and its absence may lead to malabsorption of fats, which may result in bloating and gaseous distention of stomach. Consult your pcp. Thanks.
