Gall bladder trouble...

I had my gallbladder removed last week and I was wondering if anyone else has had any probs. My doc told me that I was the first one of his Lap patients that has had to have their gall bladder removed post op. Oh well.. It's gone now and so is the pain!

I am glad to hear that you are finally pain free. I will keep my fingers crossed for a speedy recovery for you. Take care...Happy Holidays! Julie 265/168/140

I have call bladder problems now, and it's starting to get worse, the pain...anyway, I will have to have mine out soon. My doctor said it is so normal that our gallbladders go bad because we lose weight so quickly. But I am not ready for another surgery. I am going to try to hold off until I am ready for my lower body lift. If not, I will wait till after the new year. Hope you feel better. Tricia

Glad you are feeling better! -Gerriann Lap RNY 142+ pounds gone forever! I'm a whole new person now!

Cassie: I had my gall bladder out 2 1/2 month after my rny. Hope your recovery goes as smoothly as mine did. Good luck. Betsy

Cassie, I had mine out with my surgery...I was actually putting off gall bladder surgery in hopes of my bypass, it was so painful, a gall bladder attack! So my surgery was a twofer I have no problems! I hope you heal well and have no problems! You probably feel so much better already! Best wishes, Michelle

HI Cassie! My doc told me that there was a 50/50 chance that I may need mine out in the future cuz of the weight loss. Anywho--I'm glad everything went well for you!! Penny
