Gall bladder woes....

I am having a ct scan tomorrow and may be saying goodbye to my gall bladder. They want to make sure it isn't. A liver reoccurence first as I had a severe liver complication post op.... But I had stones at surgery time and they said I would probably lose it eventually. 

I am scared... I am tired.... 

Who has been there?  How long were you down?  I can't afford to miss anymore work. I missed over 5 weeks last year and alot tye year before because of severe ulcers that surgery fixed. 

 

I am terrified of another surgery. I feel like I am just now recovering from my liver surgery, it was bad. 

Had mine out 6 months to the day of my WLS. For me, it was a breeze. Almost no pain, done as an outpatient.
Was back at work after the weekend. Only out of the office Thurs for the procedure and Friday - back at work on Monday.

I had my gallbladder out 8 months after surgery.  My surgeon promised me it would be a piece of cake (which I told him was a rude thing to say to a carb deprived person in pain) and it was.  Surgery was on a Friday morning at 8:15, I was fully awake in recovery by 11:30, discharged at 12:30 and home by 1:30.  I took a total of 3 days off work, including surgery day. and was on a fight the following Wednesday morning for work.  

I can't promise anything, but I truly hope that your surgery and recovery goes as smoothly as mine did.  You will feel so much better after!

I had mine out years ago and it was eazy-peazy!  I was back to work in 3 days with no pain.

I had to have my gallbladder our exactly 8 weeks after my RNY surgery!  I could not take much time off.  Thankfully my surgery was on a Wednesday (I think, or Thursday), and I was back by Monday!

Thanks so much!!!  I feel better. I have so much anxiety after my liver problems 

I was home in hours and nearly 100% the next day.... barely even took the Norco they gave me.
