GALL BLADDER SURGERY(VERY SORE)

To those of you that had to have your gall bladder removed was you very sore?? I just had the surgery yesterday and I am so sore. How long did the soreness last?? Thanks alot. Hope everyone is having a great week. Hugs Mary

I still have my gallbladder, but my roommate had hers removed laposcopically a few years ago. She was pretty sore for 3-4 days, but then it got much better pretty quick. Her recovery time from the gallbladder surgery was much faster than my recovery from lap RNY! I hope you feel better soon - {{{{{hugs}}}}} Kellie

Hi Kellie Thanks. I am feeling much better now. Hugs Mary

I had mine taken out 5 months post-op. I was sore for a few days. I was only off work for one week. It will get better, I promise! Erin

Hi Erin Thanks. I am feeling much better now. Hugs Mary

Hi Mary...glad to hear your surgery went well...it will get better...I still have my gallbladder and took meds. to prevent it from going bad...hope that helps...take care and what are the warning signs...please post...DENNIS

Hey Dennis I am feeling much better now. Very pain pain in the right side. Everything made me sick even water. I did not eat or drink anything for about 3 days before the dr figured it out. They thought it was a stomach virus because my son was sick with one. But like I said I feel alot better now. Back to eating and drinking like always now. Take care Hugs mary

Hi Mary, Yes, I was very very sore. It was hard to get into and out of bed for a few days, and I walked like a little old lady at first. The pain was, of course, all in my abdomen. I was in my mid 30s when I had the surgery, and it hit me pretty hard those first few days. Take your pain meds, don't over do it, but do make sure you move around some, don't just lay still, just like after WLS, moving around is important. I think I took a week off of work after the gall bladder surgery, but I'm not positive exactly how many days. Take care of yourself! Sheryl

Hi Sheryl I am feeling so much better now. Still a little sore. But alot better. Hugs Mary
