Shortness Of Breath, Tremondous Soreness And Pain In Sternum And Ribs. Post Operative Period For Gall Bladder Removal. Problem?

I am 3 wks post op for gallbladder removal. I've been having shortness of breath and tremendous soreness and pain in my sternum area and my ribs. Two days ago, I had diarrhea all day and then yesterday I woke up throwing up. Today I was out in my yard for about 15 minutes, kneeling down pulling some weeds and passed out. I took about an hour for me to come completely back from it and I'm still having pain in my sternum area.

Hi, most probably it is all due to the pills you are using post operatively, or may be foodpoisoning.
I advise you to consult a gartroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have MRI for viewing any adhesions.
Thank you.
