 Dear docc,
Nausea and vomiting after cholecystectomy are known postoperative complications. They may also happen due to duodenogastric reflux, a cholecystectomy sequel that is considered as a part of post cholecystectomy syndrome (functional bowel disorders).
In cases of post cholecystectomy syndrome, there is also pain and GI problems similar to that of gall bladder stone and the condition is probably due to recurrence of common bile duct stones, or the spasm of a structure called the sphincter of Oddi.
Upper endoscopies and an ERCP with sphincter of Oddi manometry are of the requested investigation to check for such problems.
Followup with your physician is mandatory. Keep us updated.
Best regards,
