Hi and welcome to HCM.
You may suffer from postcholecystectomy syndrome or alkaline reflux which are possible complications after surgery. YOu should take antiacid medicines,follow antiacid diet and eat less fats,coffee and alcohol. ALso, you should take probiotics and menta tea. For pain you should take spasmodics or paracetamol. if thee is worsening then gastroscopy should be done.
Wish you good health. Regards
