doxieville 799 Posted December 22, 2012 Mine was 6 weeks after my sleeve. I agree, better to be safe than sorry. It's an easy surgery and bad things could happen if you don't get it out. Gallbladder attacks hurt like the dickens!! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Belledebayou 62 Posted December 25, 2012 My doc actually looked at my gallbladder before surgery and found 3 gallstones. They took out my gallbladder during surgery. Did they not do a sonogram before surgery? I hear of so many people needing to have it out afterwords. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
