Gallbladder surgery post op



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had to have gallbladder surgery after already having surgery for your sleeve? My surgeons said it was too risky doing them at the same time, so on 1/19/15 I go in the hospital for gallbladder surgery :( and if so how did you feel after? (Tmi) did you have diarrhea, nausea, ect.. After you recovered? Thank you in advance!!

I had them at the same time due to the fact my surgeon said it was better and safer that way rather than have 2 separate surgeries. It did make my recovery somewhat more difficult however, just don't seem to be bouncing back like some who just had the sleeve done. I had gall bladder removed 2 hernia repairs adhesions separated and sleeve however my surgery was complex due to the adhesions (from previous surgeries) so it was 5 hours. Most are not that long I don't think. I did not have a huge amount of pain, some nausea and I am finding I am still very weak some 4 weeks post surgery but all n all not too bad.
