Gallbladder out at the same time as surgery?

Has anyone requested and gotten their gallbladder out at the same time as surgery? I know gallbladder issues can arise afterwards, would it be something worth bringing up to the surgeon? or wait until i'm in pain afterwards?

I have heard that some doctor do take out the gallbladder regardless of reason.... some even the appendix......but from what I hear the docs with weight wise won't unless you are already having problems...... but I guess it never hurts to ask

Good luck with your surgery..... its coming soon 

I've requested it from my nurse and family drs. I have gall stones and really dont want to have two surgeries.
Both my drs and nurse have said that its a possibility but ultimately up to the surgeon (who i havent yet met).
Ive read in a few books that a lot of surgeons will take it out during every surgery to avoid future problems with it.

I saw Dr Karmali today and asked him......he said he will not take your gallbladder out or anything else out that does not medically need to come out. If he finds unexpected things during the surgery he will deal with it at that time

Hope that helps
