I,too at the age of 18 had my gallbladder out as well, I am now 34. I experienced what is called Irritable Bowel Syndrome shortly after surgery. I found that after surgery and for years to follow I had problems with a variety of foods, including but not limited to Dairy Products, Caffiene, Citric Acid, greasy foods. Watch closely to which foods cause discomfort and stay away from those foods as much as possible. I was told by a specialist that stress as well can cause stomach discomfort, I can testify to that fact. Fiber, Fiber, Fiber, anything with Fiber will help.
