Surgeons remove more than 600,000 gallbladders each year to help eliminate pain associated with it. Often times, surgery is done because of gallstones, which are hard deposits of digestive fluid in the gallbladder. As people age, gallstones become more common.
If you have your gallbladder removed, you'll likely experience changes in your digestion and will need to carefully watch your diet.
The gallbladder, which is a pear-shaped organ on your right side beneath your liver, isn't necessary. However, it does help you digest fatty foods. It also stores, concentrates and secretes the bile your liver makes.
After surgery, your liver will still make enough bile, but you might have difficulty processing fatty foods – at least for a while. More than half of patients who have their gallbladder removed have trouble digesting fat.
What you can eat right after surgery depends on your situation. Sometimes, doctors recommend liquids and soft foods. Other times, doctors let you eat what appeals to you. In most cases, you'll find that soft, bland foods are easiest to digest. This includes foods like bananas, white rice, boiled potatoes, plain pasta, dry toast, and crackers. Gradually, you'll be able to advance your diet and add more flavorful foods
