First rule of living with constantly upset stomach: before ever trying to fart, go sit on the toilet. Preferably with pants off.
After I got my gallbladder out the nurse in the post op room told me that I should take a laxitive because they didn’t want me straining to poop.
Well let me tell you what you definitely don’t need immediately after getting you gallbladder out or for the next several months, if you guessed a laxitive then you’d be 110% correct. Holy shit it was bad. I didn’t even take the full dose. Just one fucking pill and I couldn’t so much a sneak a squeak for the next 12 hour without completely spray painting something. My gut is thankfully back to normal now nearly a year later but I still can’t bring myself to trust my farts. I’ve never so much as had a close call since then but I just can’t bring myself to trusting my ass. It burned that bridge.
interesting. After my gallbladder removal, I didn’t have any trouble.
The only thing they said to me was “you’ll notice it if you eat anything super fatty”
I live right next to the state specifically known for producing the most and largest variety of cheeses in the world. I’m not going to let something as minor as some cataclysmic gastric distress get between me and my processed milk fat.
Joking aside my shits were apocalyptic for like a month after I got my gallbladder out regardless of what I ate. But my body is used to a very fat heavy diet and the doc told me my gall bladder looked like it had been fucked up for a while. So my body was probably overcompensating a bit on the bile.
Wait what?
When I eat anything fatty. Like sausages. I shit my guts out. Is my gallbladder fucked?
Most things are fine e.g. a steak or olive oil. But not fatty meats and melted chess and some other dairy
Could also be food intolerance for some ingretient.
The gallbladder itself isn’t super neccesary, as it only stores some extra bile in case more is needed. The bile itself is produced by the liver. That’s why you will notice its absence when you eat something very fatty (bile is used to break down fats).
Could be worth talking to a doc about. Checking your gallbladder for abnormalities is probably not much more than an ultrasound
i stopped eating grains and nightshades, that did the trick. yeah, you need to change something.
I’m regularly surprised by how many people manage to shit themselves, and how it’s common enough that people have a casual laugh over their “shat myself” stories. I feel left out. I laughed so hard I peed myself once when I was 5?

That’s how we deal with the trauma.
Drink way too much cheap liquor and you too can have the opportunity to shit yourself the next day.
I have IBS, and while I’ve had many close calls I can proudly say that I’ve never shit myself. As someone that’s basically a flight risk for accidental pooping, as well as having heard these stories before in-person, I often wonder if more people have stomach/bowel problems than they’d like to let on.
i left work right after clocking in because a fart felt like pushing out more than just air. so embarassing
you’ve jynxed yourself and i kind of hope you shit yourself now just so i can say “shouldn’t have shitposted about it” in response.
this might be my most elaborate shitpost yet.
OP has a gaping asshole.
a curse upon my anoose
lmao
