Gallbladder gone bad



Recommended Posts

So I was just wondering how many others have had to or are in the process of having thier gallbladder out or going bad. I have to have mine out tomorrow (10-20-2010). Anyone else?

I actually had mine removed a year before I had lapband. I felt tons better after my gallbladder removed and I was up and about roughly 2 hours after surgery. I recovered really quickly compared to getting lapband

Had mine removed 9 months after banding. Common problem for people that lose weight fast.

Best wishes to you. Pretty easy surgery and recovery. If you have loose skin on your abdomen wear something that fits tightly while you're recuperating from gallbladder surgery. Less jiggle feels better.

Take care.

I had mine out on 9/2/10 and was on my feet again in no time! My port area did stay sore for awhile and what I could eat was limited for a while. It did take a while to get to full strength but I have been under a lot of stress and had a lot going on so it was probably more than just this surgery.

Mine too! I am in the process of testing and seeing if it has to be removed! Not so much fun. I didn't loose my weight fast either so I am just not sure.
