I had my gallbladder removed about two months ago. It was my understanding that I was likely to suffer from loose stools or diarrhoea due to difficulty in processing fat BUT I seem to have the opposite. Really hard and compacted 'poo' making me quite constipated and not all regular. I have ended up straining so much I think I am giving myself a prolapse as I am having to push my 'bits' back up afterwards. Why am having different symptoms to what I expected????
