Getting my gallbladder out in a few days. I’ve had shortness of breath, chest pains, light headedness and nausea. Are these symptoms typical of a gallbladder issue?

Not necessarily. I presume you had an anaesthetic review prior to your procedure. If you have chest pain and breathlessness you should really be having an urgent medical assessment, call 111 to discuss

Your doctor may prefer you a gastroenterologist or surgeon for Gallbladder treatment. The common treatment for gallstones is surgery to remove the gallbladder. Doctors sometimes can use nonsurgical treatments to treat cholesterol stones, but pigment stones usually require surgery.

Not what you're looking for?
