A member asked:

2 weeks ago had gallbladder removed now have green stool

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No worries...: Green stools are the result of bile and foods including green pigments in fruits and vegetables as well as quick transit through the GI tract. Having had gb removed only 2 weeks ago, green stools not unexpected and of no concern.

I had my gallbladder removed in 2009. Now, in 2022, a stool sample test shows I have 60 exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. All other bloodwork/labs are normal. Yet, the CT scan shows a perfect and normal pancreas. How is this possible?
