Gallbladder Comes Out Today



Recommended Posts

In a few hours I'll be having my gallbladder out. Have one stone and some sludge. Let's hope this is the reason for my pain.

I also have pre ulcers... So if it's not the gallbladder it's prob the pre ulcers...

Doctor says have the gallbladder problems due to my rapid weight loss... 117 pounds in less than 5 months...

I was not on any meds prior. I wish I was. If I could do it again I would ask for it. Just didnt know.

My mom just had the sleeve and her doctor prescribed medicine right away

I know what you mean. I think it is my body adjusting to digesting and it is causing pain. My doctor nurse said milk of magnesia will combat the pain killers, lets hope!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
