A member asked:
I had my gallbladder removed 4 days ago. i feel alright except being bloated and only on the left side. is this normal?

Yes: It's normal to have issues with BM, and bloating after surgery. It should get better in few days. Make sure you are not constipated with pain meds. Take miralax (polyethylene glycol) if still no BM.
