appitite lost after gallbladder operation?

Question

Father is in his 90's has lost his appitite,eats very little and we are worried. Is there any one out there that could give us a honest answer? He recently had a gallbladder operation?

Answer 1

I had gall bladder surgery almost 2 years ago. I couldn't eat for
a good while. I love coffee and couldn't stand it , nor chocolate.
I eat anything now. Of course I am nowhere near 90. It is much
harder for the elderly to recoup after surgery. I lost a lot of weight
and the Dr. told me to drink slim fast because it has all the vitamins and to also eat all that I could along with the shake.

Answer 2

i had a gallbladder operation. i was kind of scared to eat much afterwords because i thought not haveing a gall bladder would somehow effect my ability to digest food and i would get sick. but that was not true. i found that i could eat anything and there is no effect what so ever or any pain or illness from eating anything.

Answer 3

after any kind of surgery there is a period of appitite loss. if it doesn't improve in a week or so talk to his doctor

Answer 4

that is a major surgery for someone that age.Call his doctor and explain his appitite lost.Good luck

Answer 5

try this..
give him a diet consisting of 75% raw foods.
include in the diet applesauce, eggs, youghurt, cottage cheese, broiled fish, fress apples, and beets. avoid sugar and products contain sugar. avoid all animal fat and meat and spicy foods. as we know when we get older our body metabolism will decrease, so give him food like whats best for him and easy to digest.
