Good luck Janina
It's a week from today so I'll definitely stop in when I get home and let you guys know how it goes. I'm sure I'll be fine. Only thing they did mention is that if I have too much scar tissue in my tummy from my lap band, they might have to do it open. I hope not.

Ah, ze gallbladder! So far the Actigall is keeping mine in my body, but I expect it to implode any second now-- I was so riddled with sludge and stones pre-op-- my surgeon prefers that we try to keep it in as long as possible-- then when he does remove it, he also tweaks and tightens the RNY and looks for leaks, scar tissue and adhesions at that time too.
Hope you feel better!
