Other stuff? C ur MD: See your surgeon, and your regular doc. If you were taking pain meds, or nsaids like ibuprofen, etc. May have inflammation of stomach, or ulcer. Adhesions from surgery not likely to cause this. Gb done laparoscopically, or open surgery)? May have retained stones. May have something unrelated, including cardiac issues. Same pain as before surgery? Maybe gb not the cause. Need to see md asap.

Not sure: You may have to go back to your surgeon, for further investigation. It may be infection, or just muscle pain, needs attention.
