Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers over the last few day :) I am home and doing well, just sore. I ended up having a lap chole to remove my gallbladder. He started with single incision, but accidentally nicked my liver and I had a hemorrhage, so he had to add a few more port holes. It's not bad I have four small incisions. I am thankful that he didn't have to convert to open !! I didn't have to have a blood tranfusion due to having a hgb of 14 to start.

I'm glad you're recovering. Sorry you got the extra incisions, but hopefully that'll be your worst complication.

So gald you are home and doing well. A few incisions is still better than open (mine was open many years ago). Rest, sip and walk, sounds familiar doesn't it.

does sound familiar, this is a lot easier than the RNY surgery though, I can eat/drink fine-just doen't have much of an apetite. As long as I take my percocet on time, I'm just sore :)
