A member asked:

Can trouble breathing in deeply result from recent pancreatitis & gallbladder removal? how so? it seems worse after meals & i sweat also at night.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Postoperative surgical site pains can make deep breathing uncomfortable. Pancreatitis can also take days or weeks to resolve, and cause pains as well. Eat light non-fat foods and drink plenty of liquids. Walk as much as possible. Use the pain medication as prescribed. Contact your surgeon if you get fevers or cough with a lot of yellow phlegm.
