glamgirl, it sounds like that's the best way to go! I had the hiatal hernia repair with my sleeve, but now I'm worried about my gallbladder down the road. Good luck to you on Monday. You are going to do great. Knock all this outta the park!!

Aww thank you for those kind words of encouragement logicwand!

I’m 1.5 years out only 25 years old and I had an attack about a month ago. Never had any previous symptoms and it was very severe I actually had gange green and it had to be removed immediately. The surgeon said he had never seen one in that condition for someone under 50. He also of course mentioned that with wls gallbladder disease is common. Scariest thing I’ve ever been through medically it was so painful

Wow. I'm so sorry to hear that! Did they open your previous sleeve incisions to take your gallbladder out? How are you feeling now? Did they give you pain medication?!

Had my sleeve 12/2016, started having issues with mild gallbladder pain 6/2017. My surgeon did an ultrasound and I had no stones so he did a follow up HIDA scan and my EJ was really high which shows the gallbladder was not functioning properly. Opted not to have surgery right away but did end up having it out 2/16/18. Easy recovery, back to work within 4 days.
