Gallbladder

Hi Guys and Gals. Found out I may have a gallbladder problem. I have to have a gallbladder ulstrasound Tuesday. Has anyone had any problems with their gallbladder since surgery and what symptoms did you have. Oh bythe way I just got engaged recently

Hi Melisa, no problems with my gallbladder... but....I wanted to offer you congrats on your engagement..... Best wishes to you and the lucky guy.... RAE

Well i will say this past weekend i think i started to have issues ...Everytime i ate something i would get a killer pain on my right side and felt liek i was dying ....Not that lasted for about 5 days and then it went away ...From what i am told that is the way the attacks work ...the come and go in sperts ....So as soon as i get my new insurance card i am off to see the Doc ....But that is what i am dealing with right now Laura

Hi Melisa, I had my gall bladder go bad around 6 months out. I had to have it out the old fashion way. Gallbladder pain is extremely painful. You get a pain that radiates all the way to your back. You get the sweats from it. I was thrilled to get the darn thing out. BTW, Congrats on the engagement! Donna Paige Open RNY-4/14/04 Open GB-11/27/04 TT & BR - 12/5/05 339/140

Melisa, My gallbladder went south about 4 months after my rny. My WLS surgeon removed the gallbladder laproscopically and I couldn't believe how much better I felt after that! Congrats on the engagement !!! Oh, symptoms - extreme pain after I ate anything and some nausea and vomiting. Hope you feel better soon but don't fear the GB operation if you have it laproscopically. I had almost no pain. Keep us updated, Ronda
