I thought a loose stool is standard with an ileostomy. Had my gall bladder removed same situation as before. Nothing to worry about I think.

When I had my gall bladder out in 1990 I had a terrible experience with "bile salt diarrhea."  It was rough. There is treatment in a med called cholestyamine. It straightened me out. Very few people have this reaction to gall bladder surgery. If one of your symptoms of gall bladder disease was uncontrollable diarrhea, chances are increased that it will be a problem after removal. I think this issue will not be a bother, since you irrigate. Let us know how you do!
