Well it was easier than the bypass. I had issues with the hospital I went to, but the actual surgery was easy. I was playing soccer a week later.

Yes it is really bad,I could not sleep last night,and now I cannot stand up stright.

Luckily it does not sound like a big deal to have the removal done.

Good luck tomorrow!

Big hug

I just had my gallbladder removed last Saturday. It was a horrible pain ... It all happened while at work. I was rushed to the ER and admitted two days later it was out. I had to wait because in on blood thinners. I personally thought that it was painful. Still a bit sore around the belly button and right side of my belly but feeling much better now that's its gone! Good luck to you ladies!

My gallbladder surgery was worse then my rny. I ended up 6 months after that surgery having to go to another surgeon to figure out why I was still having pain and he said I could have that for a few days to months to years or life. I had the surgery in 2010 and last summer I quit having those sharp side pains.

My gallbladder surgery was fine about 10 years ago. In less than a week I was up and running around. The gallbladder attacks hurt a hell of a lot worse than post op pain. the biggest pain was just the incision sites. Granted I was younger but I've always been a wimp about pain. ;-)

I wonder why they don't just take it out during rouxny because are there many ppl who don't eventually have it out. I had mine out 6 month from my bypass the pain from surgery was not as bad as pain from gallbladder hurting

      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.
