Just got my sleeve on the 23rd. I have had diarrhea since the 25th. Not sure of the cause. Perhaps because I no longer have a gall bladder? Anyone else run into this?

Exactly what she said! If all you're taking in are liquids and you aren't crazy backed up due to narcotics, liquid in, liquid out. Totally normal!

GwenMo said it! Also, I will add this: be aware of exactly which liquids you are taking in and if any of them make it worse. Lactose Intolerance is a common occurrence post op for many people (including myself).

Thanks everyone. Imodium has certainly helped to  settle it down quite a bit. Also, a needed long sleep really seemed to make a difference. I will not be worried because I am doing very well with my clear fluid intake.

Thanks again for the support

All of your posts were bang on. The diarrhea subsided after I added protien shake.

Thanks everyone
