If you have had gall bladder removal surgery, please talk to me.

I had laparascopic gall bladder surgery eleven days ago. The surgeon also repaired an umbilical hernia at the same time.

My incisions are healing fine, the bruising is moderate, and I'm slowly seeing an increase in strenth. The problem?

No matter what I eat (and I eat very little, and mostly plain, fat free foods) it causes bloating in my mid and upper abdomen.

It was not so much at first, but more in the last 4 to 5 days.

Have you had this experience? How did you find relief or help? Any idea what causes this?

I thought after gall bladder surgery I'd be able to introduce normal food slowly back into my diet, but not the case, as everything seems to have the same bloating effect.

Hope these questions don't gross you out, but there's always someone out there who's gone through stuff before you.

I'd really appreciate your answers.
