My gallbladder was removed during my surgery....

I, too, had my gallbladder removed during my RNY. I'm 7 months post-op, and I haven't noticed any difference at all. According to my surgeon, all the GB is is a pouch that holds gall that's produced by the liver. It doesn't do anything by itself.

No difference at all! I would NEVER know it had been taken out ( at 10 months post op ).

I had my gallbladder removed about 4 years ago. I haven't missed it for a second.
