Food poisoning?: The first thing that comes to mind is food or water poisoning. Many bacteria/parasites can cause vomiting, cramping etc followed by diarrhea. The goal is to stay hydrated (small sips at frequent intervals) and obtain IV fluids if unable to keep down the sips. Most of those illnesses are self limited but if she is not better in a day or so she should get to a clinic. Appendicitis, etc possible.

Sounds more like: Gastroenteritis related to travel, either infection or food poisoning, rather than anything related to gb removal. Try to stay hydrated, take mainly liquids, try antiemetics, avoid dairy and citrus. If this doesn't work, she will need IV fluids. If urine output drops <750ml/day or she develops right lower abdominal pain or fever, get help at medical facility. Good luck.
