Nyn.. the only lasting side effect that I can directly pinpoint as being from losing my gallbladder is that I had VERY loose stools the entire 26 years post-op... my mom & my sister also suffered similarly after they had their gallbladders out- (and note, neither of them have ever even hit the 'overweight' category on the BMI scale so it isn't always due to being obese and rapid weight loss)
Since my RNY though, I have the exact opposite issue, and it is a major problem for me. Weird, huh?
