removal of gallballder is to avoid further infection, once removed the chances of infection comes down, when persists this can lead to pouring of germs from bile duct, can give rise to this condition like this, course of antibiotics should help with your DR consultation.

I just had gallbladder surgery Feb 8th, 2008, and yes, diarrhea can be an unfortunate side effect for some after gallbladder surgery. Luckily, mine only lasted a couple of days and I haven't had it since. But if yours is persistent, you need to contract your surgeon and inform them. They can prescribe Questran which will put an end to the constant diarrhea. It is a bile salt replacement for those of us who've had our gallbladders removed. Normally, the diarrhea goes away after a few months, but contact your doctor and ask them about Questran. You can read about it here: http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/cholestyramine.htm
