Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

They took out my gallbladder because of stones. No place to store the bile now. Without a gallbladder, the bile enters the intestine in a fairly random way. In some people, that bile acts as a powerful laxative. Unfortunately, I'm in that group. I have challenges now. I miss my gallbladder. Stupid gallbladder.
My GI doctor prescribed me Colesevelam for that. It's a cholesterol drug but it's used off-label for treating post-cholecystectomy diarrhea. Looks like cholestyramine is also used for that. Worth asking your doctor about. It worked for me after we dialed in the dosage.
