How long were you "uncomfortable"? I'm still taking pain killers every 5 or 6 hours. It is the min. amount that I can take, but don't want to take them forever. BTW: I'm from South Carolina. I'm 46 and had surgery in South Carolna.

Thanks for the response. By now, I've really slacked off on the pain meds. Now, I'm just dealing with only eating Soup for the next 2 and 1/2 weeks. Let me know how your first doctors visit goes when you go back. I go back 2 weeks post op. How about you?

Here are the details. My surgeons only operate on Tuesdays. The 29th of September is out. If I were to have the surgery on October 6th, how would I feel on October 24th at my daughters wedding? I do not care about what I can or cannot eat. I just want to be able to dance with my husband (her father). All comments or suggestions are helpful and much appreciated. FYI: I have a "back up" date planned for November 3rd, but I'd rather not wait that long.

Thank you all for your responses. I had gallbladder surgery 3 years ago. I went to work (office) for an hour the next day (Friday) and was back at work full-time on Monday. I recovered very well. I believe I would be fine, but I am going to take y'alls advise and wait till November. My daughters wedding is a big to-do, so I will need all my strenght. Thanks so much, again.
