Pain after GB rem: if you are having similar pain, get some blood work looking at your liver function and pancreas function. These are simple blood tests to see if a retained gallstone is stuck in your bile duct. If there is a stone, it can be removed with an endoscope. Your steri strip falling off is not a problem unless there is drainage from the incision. Your surgeon can order the bloodworm and check the incisio
