The Anti-Gallbladder

Posted 10.17.2007 by The Shit Volcano (3740)
Editor's note: this was originally posted on the forums.


The anti-gallbladder. That's what I call it. The little shit demon that the surgeon replaced my gallbladder with in March. I was told that my bowels would adjust in about a year after surgery, but until then I might have symptoms of IBS. Every post-gallbladder patient I have talked to has this problem -- some only for a year, and other times for a lifetime. It doesn't really matter to me, as long as I get some good poop stories out of it.

Each of the patients I have talked to also mentions that there are certain foods that they can't tolerate. It never seems to be the same for each patient. One guy I know couldn't have peanut butter. Another couldn't have cashews. So far I have been safe in the nut department, but my intolerance appears to be to olive oil (except first cold pressed) and foods high in chemicals and/or fat.

So the other day Gilbert and I decided to take my sister's roommate out to TGI Friday's for a treat. I figured it was okay to order the cajun alfredo chicken pasta because I ate the same thing at Chili's without even a whimper down below. So I enjoyed every bite of my pasta and even had a nice dessert at the end.

Nothing exciting happened, at first. But halfway through my dessert (chocolate cake a la mode! Yum!) I felt an all-too-familiar cramp.

Sometimes these cramps can be deceiving. They might mean that I'll have to go to the bathroom and squeeze out a sticky log, or maybe that I just have gas. It's really hard to tell until I am on the toilet. So I excused myself to the bathroom and sat down on the surprisingly clean toilet. After a few minutes of pushing against the cramps, all I got were a few squirts of jelly.

Yes, jelly. Something I have only produced post-gallbladder.

I'm sure you're all thoroughly disgusted by now.

Frustrated, I pulled up my pants and returned to the table. This was obviously going to be one of those gassy cramp episodes. We paid for our food and left the restaurant; but no sooner had we pulled out onto the road when I heard a deep, internal gurgle.

"It's happening again, isn't it?" asked Gilbert, very quietly.

I nodded stiffly. Each gurgle brought another wave of pain similar to those I felt with Gordon's birth. Each time one of those pains came, I felt my asshole bulge from more pressure. Fluid seethed and bubbled just behind my anus. I knew if I waited much longer, I'd have my first public pants shitting in a few years.

"Oh," I groaned, involuntarily. "Hurry up and get us home!"

I never realized how many bumps the road to my sister's house had until that night. Each jarring motion of the car caused me to cramp further. My asshole opened and a little more jelly leaked out: the fat from my recent meal. I could already feel the heat from what was behind it.

On the next bump, I rose up off the seat, my asscheeks clenched. I ended up unzipping my jeans because the pressure was so great on my abdomen that I was afraid my pants would force the shit surge loose. Each foot closer to the house seemed like an eternity until my sister's roommate, who drove, finally stopped in the driveway.

She didn't stop to ask questions. Instead, she handed me the keys and I ran for the door, gripping them tightly in one hand while unzipping my jeans in the other. Unfortunately my grip on the keys was a little too tight, and I accidentally pushed the panic button on her car alarm.

"Shit!" I yelled. It was eleven at night in a noise ordinance area. "Shit! How do you shut this thing off? I can't see this button in the dark!"

I turned around and headed back to the car, tossing the keys to my sister's roommate. In the process, my jeans dropped to my ankles and I stood bare-assed in the middle of the street. Thank God for a no street lights or I'm sure it would have been quite a sight: me naked from the waste down as some lady struggles with a honking car alarm.

She slammed her car door and darted toward the house to unlock it, forgetting all about the things she was collecting from her trunk. I bolted past her without so much as a thank you, my pants still around my ankles, dodging several cats and dogs. Obnoxious Cat decided that now was the time to freeze in the middle of my path down a narrow hallway. She just looked up at me all bug-eyed as I tried to get around her. It was like reaching for a basketball hoop. Every time I tried to go around, she blocked my way.

"GET OUT OF THE WAY OR I'LL SHIT ON YOU, STUPID CAT!!!"

Obnoxious Cat turned into a gray-and-white blur and disappeared. I leapt over the baby gate to the bathroom (left so my sister's dog didn't indulge in kitty roca) and plopped my ass down on the pot.

PFFLOOOSH!!!! I was right not to fart in the car. Hurricane Katrina poured out into the toilet bowl, complete with a splashback storm surge. It took about three flushes for the drowned residents of New Orleans to finally vacate the bowl. (Damn old water-saving toilets!) Pea green poop, pieces of chewed chicken, partially digested noodles. It was disgusting.

I thought the storm had passed. But moments after I settled on the living room couch, another wave hit me. I pushed Gilbert out of the way and darted into the bathroom again. Fucking Rita had arrived with about as much fury as the last shiticane. The residents of Houston were just as stubborn, consisting of more chewed chicken, a few bites of an appetizer, and more of that green oily stuff from the last burst.

This went on most of the night. Rita was followed by Stan, who was followed by Wilma, who was followed by everything up to Hurricane Zeta. It was the 2005 season all over again, coming out of my asshole. The color of the shit went from green to brown as the chocolate cake and ice cream made its debut.

"Funny," I thought. "I don't remember eating THAT much."

I found out later that TGI Friday's uses MSG in their food. Obviously, anti-gallbladder doesn't like MSG any more than olive oil. Maybe worse. At least olive oil is only a one-time explosion. Geesh!

Haha, damn, great story. How closely do you examine what you leave in the bowl, anyway???

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 10.17.2007

Its funny how people think they can eat something then a hour later they are pooping it out,, peoples digestive system doesnt work like that..its not that fast....

Mary Queen of Scats (387) -- 10.17.2007

TSV, I have forwarded your story to my mother, who is going to have her gallbladder removed in a few weeks.

The doctor told her "you may experience some abdominal discomfort and a decrease in the firmness of your stools".

I'm thinking this may be a more accurate description for her.

Anonymous coward, you are WRONG. IBS sufferers and others with digestive ills, CAN and DO shit like this. My fastest transit time was 15 minutes when I shit out red peppers I'd eaten in a salad. The body has an amazing ability to rid itself of things it cannot tolerate. NORMAL digestion, does in fact take much longer. Clearly, TSV was not describing a NORMAL shituation.

Deja Poo (651) -- 10.17.2007

Awesome. Not only does everything pass through undigested, but the fat makes an extra quick exit as Butt Nuttella.

You should follow Bilgepump's example: grab the cat on the way to the turdatorium for extra soft wiping satisfaction. (Or is it Fudgepump's? I can't seem to keep those two straight in my mind.)

I had my gallbladder removed around 1992. And I too have been producing "jelly" ever since.
But my weird anitgallbladder thing is this severe pain almost like heartburn, but only if I haven't eaten anything for awhile.
It sucks.

RoboCrap13 (394) -- 10.17.2007

I think that Obnoxious Cat has read about Kitty-wiping on here. That's why it flew out of there at high speed.

Shits Happily I... (139) -- 10.17.2007

Two things:
First of all, Anonymous Coward, you are wrong, wrong, wrong! I can tell you stories involving a Chinese buffet on Long Island that would not only set your head straight, but bring tears to your eyes. All I can say is, food CAN be on the express train to your asshole in under an hour--trust me!!

Second, Shit Volcano, great story!! You have a gift for storytelling. While I felt *awful* for your discomfort and having to deal with a gross situation, I was laughing my ass off, especially at the mention of the kitty roca (one of my dogs loves it!) and the obnoxious cat fleeing for its life after being threatened with a toxic shit storm! Great story, and so well told! I love the hurricane angle!

I guess that Chinese buffet serves up one hell of a poo poo platter.

daphne (3695) -- 10.17.2007

Hey, first cold pressed olive oil is the way to go, anyway. Less solids and junk in the oil, less bitterness.

Your story is a true testament to how kids and animals paint the details in our lives - not to mention how your gallbladderless poop paints the toilet bowl, most likely.

Its amazing how here we sacrifice even our own gall bladders for the sake of GREAT POOP REPORTS. Thats why I love this site so much! S.V. we should have a wall of fame on this site for people like you who bring us these great stories!

How fast can food move through an IBS disgestive system? I swear that food has gone through me in thirty minutes.

daphne (3695) -- 10.17.2007

You know, when I had some gastrointestinal trouble a few years back, there were a few instances when green onions on a salad made a lower appearrance in less than 2 hours. Still green.

At least you made it to the toilet and had a seat before the storm broke. Good on that.

pooologist (16) -- 10.18.2007

OMG, i bout died when you got to the cat. I can just imagine that cat just looking at you. Would have been hilarious if you shit on that cat! Great Story!!!

Mary Queen of Scats (387) -- 10.18.2007

Although I've never personally experienced a simultaneous filling and voiding of the fudge factory, I 100% agree that it IS possible.

Diarrhea is your body's way of sitting Mike Tyson next to Evander Holyfield at a Cher Concert. Instant removal.

**hidden forum announcer guy** We've replaced actual Doniker comments with these from a professional Doniker forum double. Let's see if they can tell the difference...

**Doniker stand in**
Your story sucks...probably fake. That someone would find terrorizing a poor helpless cat humorous is beyond me.

Shits Happily I... (139) -- 10.20.2007

An open plea to the artist who created the awesome drawing of Bunga on the Pot and The Day I Ruined Thanksgiving...can we please get a drawing of TSV barrelling (sp?) towards Obnoxious Cat, with the kitty fleeing, bug-eyed?? This story is teriffic, and deserves an illustration. Just an idea. :)

Thanks for the comments, guys. (Especially the fake doniker comment. That had me laughing.)

For the AC who said food can't pass through your system that fast, I used to be of your point of view before my surgery. Since then, I have learned differently. Looking at my story "Food for Toilet". The other day I ate a salad pull of those yellow and green grape tomatoes (something I had never eaten before that day) and discovered that the olive oil in the dressing wanted out fast. Within twenty minutes of eating the salad, I shit nearly whole tomatoes out the other side. It was disgusting!

Ah, the power of olive oil!

Me too, baby... not to sound Dumpy-esque, and I won't link it, but I think my very first Poopreport was of a similar nature...spinach salad in, spinach salad out in about half an hour...

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 04.20.2008

I once ate salad with a friend and it was all through us in 20 minutes. The veggies must have had a great reunion down in the bowl recounting their stories to each other after having gone through two different guys. Pretty amazing stuff.

Mrs. Mad Crapper (103) -- 10.17.2008

isn't gallbladder removal the greatest! when I had mine taken out there was a young girl waiting in preop to have hers taken out as well she was griping how hungry she was and wanted to go have a cheeseburger and fries when she was done with her surgery. I couldn't even keep down water so I can only imagine what happened to her if she actually made it to a burger, dumbass.

prarie doggin (2328) -- 10.17.2008

My daughter had hers removed at age 15 after repeated severe attacks. We felt good when a close friend (who was an ER nurse) agreed to be present in the surgery. She came out to update us two times and on the third time she had the gallbladder in a dish to show us. Luckily I hadn't eaten breakfast, and to get on topic, I don't recall any complaints in the poop department from her afterwards.

sittingpretty (281) -- 10.17.2008

I laughed so much at Obnoxious Cat blocking the way, my eyes teared.

ChiefThunderbutt (941) -- 10.17.2008

Mrs. Mad Crapper..........There are some real dumb asses in the world. I have an acquaintance that had a triple bi-pass then had his wife bring him a Big Mac and fries while still in the hospital. Said he couldn't stomach the healthy food he was supposed to be eating.

Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
