Yes and No.
Yes - if you just underwent a gallbladder surgery. It will take some time for your digestive system to adjust because there's no longer a gallbladder that will store the bile. So, the bile will flow continuously.
No - if your body had adjusted to the digestion process. Just like me, I'm living without a gallbladder and I don't have problems with it.

The gallbladder may not be visible on an ultrasound for several reasons, such as being completely empty, which can occur if the patient has not fasted before the procedure. Additionally, factors like obesity, excessive bowel gas, or anatomical variations can obscure the gallbladder's view. In some cases, the gallbladder may be inflamed or diseased, leading to difficulties in visualization. Lastly, technical factors related to the ultrasound equipment or the operator's experience can also contribute to the gallbladder not being seen.
A gastroenterologist diagnoses and treats diseases of the digestive organs, including the stomach, esophagus, intestines, pancreas, liver and gallbladder.
Much of the research performed by scientists shows that an enlarged prostate can cause urinary problems. However, people that experience enlarged prostates can have irritable bowel syndrome which causes frequent bowel movements. Not much has been experienced by individuals suffering from an enlarged prostate and trouble having bowel movements.
Yes you can survive without most of your small bowel and all of your large bowel. Nutrients are absorbed in the small bowel but you can survive with just part of it intact. People have surgery resulting in ileostomy (where the remainder of the small bowel is bought onto the surface). Waste products are then discharged into a bag attached to the surface of the abdomen.
Bowel habits vary, but an adult who has not had a bowel movement in three days or a child who has not had a bowel movement in four days is considered constipated.
You failed to mention what the 'bowel trouble' was. Seroquel (dibenzothiazepine) is a medication prescribed for acute mania in bipolar 1 disorder.

In paralytic ileus, the bowel stops moving contents along, and a blockage occurs.
A 2-year-old can typically go without a bowel movement for one to three days without it being a cause for concern. However, each child is different, and factors such as diet, hydration, and individual health can influence bowel habits. If a child goes longer than this without a bowel movement, or shows signs of discomfort, it's advisable to consult a pediatrician.
The length of time a person can go without having a bowel movement varies, but generally, a period of more than three days is considered constipation. Some individuals may not move their bowels for several days without experiencing discomfort, while others may feel the need to go daily. Factors like diet, hydration, and individual health can significantly affect bowel regularity. If someone experiences prolonged absence of bowel movements or significant discomfort, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
Gall bladder surgery does not usually cause any problems. Bile slowly trickles in the small bowel as it cannot be stored in the gall bladder and this excess of bile can result in diarrhoea in some patients.
