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!

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.

First I dont have all signs of it but the most one I looked out was right side pain in the middle! It's dull but gets sharp,nausea,vomiting. U can look it up but that's mainly my symptoms!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
