For those who have had your gall bladder removed, what was post-surgery like?

Asked by gailcalled (54644points) June 11th, 2010

I am interested in both the very short-term (family member had laparoscopic surgery yesterday and has pain in shoulder and clavicle area today) and long-term issues.

He cannot tolerate the codeine-related pain killers and therefore is sticking to Tylenol. He has no appetite now, also, as he had a bad reaction to the general anesthesia. Any tips, hints, suggestions?
