Gallstones causing problems. 10 points.?!


Question: Gallstones causing problems. 10 points.?
Recently I have been Diagnosed With Gallstones and am due to get my gallbladder removed this Tuesday coming. I have had scans, mri scans and tests and it is deffinatly gallstones. Why do the doctors ask if you have suffered diarrhea? Well just within the last few days have I started suffereing this, what does this mean?

Sorry if there is to much information there.
Just a bit worried.

Thank you to anyone who answers.

Answers:

Diarrhoea is not a symptom of gall stones. It may however develop if you get pancreatitis as a complication of your stones. However this would normally not occur on its own, but be associated with fever, vomiting and loss of appetite.
