I don't believe gallbladder surgery is a simple surgery all of the time. I had it but they had to open me up due to a mass and it took me over a year to heal. I also had to have an appendectomy due to tumors.

It sounds to me like she has more going on then they are finding. After my gallbladder surgery, I most likely would have died if it hadn't been for my PCP. I couldn't get well from it. He even said he'd never seen anyone have such a hard time with gallbladder surgery as I had.

I also had the gallstones that had to be removed. I now have a pain in my right side if I stand up too long and they can't figure out what it is.

I would definatly say she is having mental issues dealing with the surgery. Depression sets in and people can't fight it at times.

I hope they do find out what is going on with her soon.
