I had my gallbladder removed LC and was sent home 2 days later even thou I had a huge pain in my chest and belly about 24 after surgery. They talked about going back to have  another look but nothing happened. 5 days later an ambulance had to take me to hospital in excruciating pain where I endeduction up with surgery for internal bleeding. 2.4lts of blood and bile was drained over 6 days. They also did a 3rd surgery the day after the second to cut the opening of the bile duct or something. What went so wrong? 3 surgeries in a week and Im still in pain 3 weeks from the last one.
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for your query. There was obviously common bile duct injury which is known complication, but in your case there was also internal bleeding which is sometimes fatal in such situations. These 3 surgeries were necessary and saved your life and there will be prolonged recovery for sure. SO be patient for 2-3 more weeks and do frequent ultrasound check-ups. Wish you good health. Regards
