kmbrlycool 214 Posted September 20, 2012 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...

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted September 20, 2012 Meant to add, where you on any gall bladder medication prior to having problems? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmbrlycool 214 Posted September 20, 2012 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elizabeth12677 6 Posted September 22, 2012 I had mine taken out on Thursday. I was in a lot of pain. Now it is more sore pain than indigestion pain. How are you feeling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmbrlycool 214 Posted September 22, 2012 So I had my gallbladder out... And I'm in more pain with this procedure than I was with the sleeve... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elizabeth12677 6 Posted September 22, 2012 So I had my gallbladder out... And I'm in more pain with this procedure than I was with the sleeve... 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
