Sleeve/gallbladder Out Vs. Not Same Time-- Recovery And Other Things



Recommended Posts

Based on all I heard and read it seems people might have a harder time who have GB out at same time as sleeve surgery. I have large gallstones. I got freaked out because one, only 1, post in my search said that their surgeon said removal of gallstones at same time could be bad in case GB breaks open spilling contents causing infecting..yuck...I want to believe that's inaccurate info. that never happens with an experienced surgeon.

Could it also be that if your GB is very large and being pulled through the small hole that would make healing longer.

I've also wondered what the difference will be since I suffered for so long with the stones. How will I know what "symptoms" are due to not having GB vs. getting the sleeve.

I have a friend who can't eat tuna or mayo since no GB...so if that's me how would I know if that was the no GB or the sleeve.

These are the newest cuckoo thoughts in my brain. :wacko:
