I had my gull bladder (I think that's how you spell it.) Removed about 14 yrs ago. And I have minor scars from that. Will they do the insicions on those? Just wondering.

No, I don't believe they do since I think the gallbladder scars are too high.

I had my gall bladder removed 9 months before y surgery and they did use mine.

Just wondering if that would make the insicions larger or thicker scaring?

It didn't make mine any larger but I think it depends on the surgeon. Scars didn't seem to change much at all. The ones that he used looked like they did before

It depends on the previous scar tissue

How excited I would be if he could use my pre-existing scars!!! Lol I have had way too many abdominal surgeries (lap band, removal, replacement, gallbladder, 2 c-sections and hysterectomy) in the last 10 years. So I have plenty of scars to choose from! Lol looks like a TJ knife fight on my tummy as-is, but would be nice to keep it at what it is, instead of adding more! Lol Oh well, I guess I'll find out in 18 days (not that I'm counting)! ;)

      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.
