Has anyone been able to have LAP RNY who has already had an OPEN Gallbladder removal?

I have read that you are not a candidate for LAP surgery if you have had previous abdominal surgery. Like most people, I assume, I would MUCH rather have it done Lap as opposed to OPEN. But, afraid that I won't be able to because I had an OPEN gallbladder removal. I know, I will ask my doctor when I see him in two weeks...but I would like to know of others who have accomplished this. Thanks for your help.
