What Causes Abdominal Pain After Gall Bladder Removal?

My father was admiited to Fortis Hospital Fardiabad on 24 Jul 2010 after he complained of having severe Abdomen Pain, after doing various tests doctor advised to ERCP to remove stones in CBD as he got his gall bladder removed in 2002 so some stones were left. After the operation he complained of severe pain, his amylase level raised to 2200, doctor said he suffered from pancreatis and it will take 2-3 days for pain to subside, but it's been 4 days he is still having mild pain which raises at peak sometime during the day.....kindly tell how much time it will take, or do we need more follow ups....His age is 56 years, he got CABG in 1998, having hypertension and is diabetic too....



Thanks in Advance...........
