Gallstone attack with the Lapband??
Machine2240 replied to candieee1974's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello Candiee, I did have some major complications with my Gall Blatter after losing about 40 lbs, although I wasn't eating greasy food. After some research I found that lapband in many cases has pushed Gall Blatters over the edge. My symtoms started out as lower back pain and as I ignored it, it got SIGNIFICANTLY worse. I ignored it for a long time suffering in silence until it was completely unbearable and told my surgeon about it. Once I explained my symtoms to him, he scheduled first a ultra sound an then emergency removal surgery because he was worried I was on the brink of sepsis. If you are having pain spare yourself and dont wait...
