ahh! i got my gallbladder removed last week! its a long story but omg i had a bad experience because it was an emergency surgery. I had complications and was in surgery for 5 1/2 hours and after they discharged me I ended up back in the hospital 2 more times.
But its been over a week and im a little sore but thats it. So dont worry this wont happen to you, and after all that I am still feeling pretty good They give you lots a medicine anyway for after surgery, at this point im barely taking any pain meds.
Your surgery is soon right? i Hope you havent had any attacks, ughh.

damn that stinks, so you got like two weeks til ur surgery date. Dont be scared, im sure you will do just fine. From what i heard its easy
Man, i had a bad day the other day. lol. Well the surgeon said he didnt want to do surgery yet. He said yes, you have gallstones but you dont have all the classic symptoms of gallbladder disease (which I think I do). So he said he wants to do more test because there could be other things wrong that have the same symptoms of gallbladder disease. He said my bloodtest (from when i went to the ER) for my liver didnt come back so great, (no idea what that means) or it could be stomach ulcers. Somethings wrong in that region lol. SO hes ordering me test like CT scan and stuff. So he said after the test he can determine where we go from there. Im guessing he just wanted to "make sure" first before he goes and pulls out the gallbladder. i still think its my gallbladder, but i guess i gotta listen to the Dr. lol

hey hun,
how did ur consultation go?
