Hi welcome to the health care magic
I need to know when was your gall bladder removed??
Post cholecystectomy diarrhea is common complication
Gall bladder help in fat digestion by storage of bile salts
As in cholecystectomy patient bile reservoir absent, diarrhea occurs if high fatty foods or excess diet eaten
Take low fat diet
Take Small meal with frequent interval
If diarrhea not improving then your doctor might suggest you colestipol like bile salt medication
Hope your concern solved
