what does a gallbladder attack feel like?
MN_Meg770 replied to angyplus5's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hi there- Whatever happened? Are you ok? My gallbladder pain was on right side to the middle of my stomach area and it began after l ate greasy food or drank alcohol. It was a relief to get it removed! Hope you’re ok! megan -

What would happen if you couldn’t tolerate something?

I have a friend who had her surgery at Methodist and had good results. Must be exciting that it’s finally almost here! I’m Megan from St. Paul. I’ll be having my surgery at United hospital probably April or May. It’s great to “meet “ others from Minnesota/ Twin Cities!
-
Hi- fellow Twin Cities member here. Which surgeon at Abbott did your surgery? I’m pretty sure that mine will be at United but I can change if I want. thanks!! Megan

Oh cool!! My brother went to Penn State. Are philly cheese steaks are off the plan?! Lol...
-
Great idea!! My surgery should be in April if all goes well. My first appts. with the surgeon, dietician and nurse are on Nov. 28th. I’m in MN- you?
-
That’s what mine is - 10. I’m a carb fiend and need to avoid chips, breads, etc. Bringing lunch to work will help as well as stopping the fast food. Time to look for good things to replace the bad carbs.

I too have to get my A1c down - ugh...going to be a challenge for sure. All the Halloween candy around at work isn’t helping.

Thanks! I need to learn to SLOW down when I eat. -
My insurance requires 6 mos of monthly dietitian visits, psych visit and exercise plan so I can relate. Maybe try just getting through one day at a time and visualize how awesome you’re gonna look in 4 mos. 😊 hang in there!

Good to know. I am pretty strong usually, able to stop those reflexes but this could change with the surgery. I am keeping a positive attitude. Thanks! Megan -

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I had anesthesia 2x before and did fine so I’m hoping it’s the same this time. It’s great to hear positive things about the surgery!! I go between nervous and excited, depending on the moment.
