Thanks for writing!

The back pain you are feeling is left over from the gall bladder problem. Even though the gall bladder was removed, the nerves and other control mechanism is still there. And needs to be adjusted.

Go to www.sorsi.com or www.icak.com and look for a good chiropractor near you. They can adjust your spine so that you feel a lot better.

Does this answer your question?
