Has anyone been diagnosed with BAM after having their gallbladder out ? It seems to be getting worse and although I am now on the powders sometimes they work sometimes not !

Yes I have. Although it is 10 years since I had mine out and only started with daily diarrhoea 18 months ago apparently it can come on at any time after. I am taking Questran which does help but isn't perfect I still get diarrhoea at least once a week and have to take Imodium but that is better than every day. There is a supply issue with Questran just now and I am having to take the light one which isn't working as well I don't think and is truly awful to take.

Anyone found a diet that helps ? Sometimes I think it’s animal fats that cause it sometimes it seems to be bread / wheat ?
