Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My mother is having health problems. Her dr is doing nothing. She spent 5 days in the hospital with no solutions. She passed out and when I took her to the hospital her BP was 80 over 40. She just had her gall bladder removed and lots of stones removed from the duct. She had a colonoscopy and everything was ok. She feels bloated. No appetite and when she does eat she get full fast. She has lost 16 pounds since the operation. When she has to have a bowel movement she says it feels like there is still more in there and she can t get it out. She said today she doesn t want to live like this. She has taken laxatives most of her life because of painful hemroides. Her heart rate is fast. Oh and she gets a fever. They don t last long but she shivers from them. In the hospital it was 102. They gave her Tylenol and it went away. Please help us figure this out. She is very weak also.
Your mother is having symptoms of Post cholecystectomy syndrome. She is having flatulence, bloating, dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, abdominal discomfort & fever. She can take antacids, PPI's & laxatives to get relieve. Let her take home made food cooked is scanty oil without spices.
She should stay hydrated & cut on addictions(smoking, caffeine, alcohol) if any. She is suggested to get physically examined by her GP, get Blood (CBC, LFT) & Imaging tests (MRCP & ERCP) done to detect ductal dilatation, stricture, ampullary stenosis, retained stones or any other structural GI problems.
Her treatment will depend upon the source of the pathology detected.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K.
