A member asked:

Liver enzymes high after gallbladder removal, is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Some temporary mild increase in liver function blood tests can occur early after gallbladder surgery. If there is worsening liver blood tests, jaundice, vomiting, increasing abdominal pain, recurrent vomiting or other concerns, then call and see your surgeon very soon.
