AB  - In a post-bariatric surgery patient with suspected biliary dyskinesia, what does 
      an ejection fraction (EF) of 87% on hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan 
      indicate to a healthcare provider? Conventionally, in post-bariatric patients, 
      the gallbladder becomes hypofunctional; however, in this case, the gallbladder 
      activity increased exponentially. Of note, there are no previously documented 
      cases of developing an overactive gallbladder after undergoing a bariatric 
      surgery procedure. This report aims to explore the possible associations between 
      bariatric surgery and the development of gallbladder hyperkinesis in the early 
      postoperative period, the diagnostic tool used to discover the source of our 
      patient's ailment, as well as the rationality behind a surgical procedure that 
      led to an excellent response, namely, laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
