Did you have keyhole surgery ?? Presume you did mine was OK apart from the top incision which got infected put on antibiotics but also had 2 more weeks off work.so glad I don't get gallstone attacks now.

My gallbladder surgery was trouble free. I didn’t even need painkillers but I was given a small supply of codeine which can cause constipation, other opioids can have the same effect, so it could be this rather than directly from the surgery.

I hope the infection clears up.
