I was beginning to really become depressed thinking that the pain I endured with my lap band was made worse by converting to a rny .... every time I ate ANYTHING I had pain, nausea, big time bloating and more scary than anything was my heart would race . I am so very happy to report that those symptoms seem to be all my bad gall bladder and not just something I had to learn to live with due to rny.... now that it's gone ( gall bladder ) I feel just right ! I'd like to thank you all for the tremendous support and well wishes . You guys mean so much to me through this lifelong journey ! Thank you thank you thank you

Yes I was so excited the scale and I could be on friendly terms again.  I'm fully hoping to see 159 by my month 7 start ... which is December 3 ....

Hi Sheri,

I am two days behind you and still hurting from incisions.  I don't think I had symptoms from the gallbladder, but was having reflux at night and that may have been caused by the gallstones.

I am glad that you are feeling better and hope that continues.

Removing the gallbladder was much easier than I thought.  After the other surgeries I have had, this is a minor inconvenience for a few days.

So far no reflux at all.  So I am hoping that it is over.
