Im 7 months post op from WLS and everytime I eat no matter what I eat I have stomach pains, gurgling, and don't feel well. My dr has me taking Zenpep which is an enzyme. She said because I don't have my gallbladder any more I'm not able to digest food! Anyone else having these problems if so what are you doing? The script for the enzyme's are very expensive!
Digestion problems!

Hi, Gayle,
Please check back with your doctor so you can understand exactly why she is prescribing Zenpep for you. Sooner is better than later. Like, now would be good.
How long have you been taking Zenpep? Zenpep is usually prescribed for pancreatic deficiencies. Is there something wrong with your pancreas?
Your gallbladder is only a storage tank, a concentrator, for bile, which is produced by your liver. Without your gallbladder, your liver goes right on producing bile. Tens of thousands of people are living well, and digesting their food, without their gallbladders.
Let us know what you find out from your doctor. We are here for you.
