Indigestion and loose motion
My mother has gallbladder stone and was removed last January 2025 but after the surgery her stomach is very upset like whatever she eats every time she goes to the toilet or sometimes if she eats she needs to go to the toilet multiple times. She is 57 so what could be the reason that her stomach is not responding properly and you know gallbladder is removed so this could be the reason. If you have any suggestions or ideas let me know. Thank you for your support

The symptoms sound like what we call ‘Bile Acid Diarrhoea’ (B A D).
Do the following
1. Regular loperamide 2mg three times a day to slow the bowels
2. If not better with loperamide, then use Choltran sachets once a day (it contains Cholestyramine)
3. Bloods tests every six months- CBP, Liver function tests and Lipid profile
All the best.
