We left for the hospital at 5:00 AM and were home by about 2:30 yesterday. They said I did very well, I was up and walking by about noon. The DR told hubby the gallbladder was very inflamed and it was time for it to come out. Hubby then told him about the pains I had this weekend and the DR laughed and said it just had to act up first didn't it? I'm very sore and moving isn't that easy, but I know it will get better everyday! It's a different pain than the WLS but heck I made it through that so this should be easy! I am having some of those wonderful gas pains in my shoulder, but hopefully that will soon be gone. My Mom is coming later this morning to "baby-sit" me and have me help her make fat free/low sugar pumpkin pies, and probably some sugar free pumpkin bread. She'll be doing all the work, I'll just be giving instructions. My Mom has never made a pumpkin pie before! Thanks for all your good thoughts and well wishes! Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful I have no more gallbladder to deal with! Jan

Glad your GB surgery went well... on the brighter side its not something you'll have to worry about later on I had mine taken out back in June. I can say now it was nothing like the pain I had after Gastric Bypass.. lol.. Once I woke up from the Gallbladder surgery I just felt kind of sick to my stomach... and thirsty... once I got home (as it was outpatient surgery) I slept for like 16 hours.. lol.. Ya know I didn't even know I had stones until after my pre-op testing though.. I never had any pain or anything.
