Who's had their gallbladder removed?

Thanks for this! Although you are the minority I appreciate hearing it. Turns out my initial consultation isn't even for 2 more weeks, and then surgery can be scheduled after that. After having experienced 3 attacks in 2 weeks, this makes me very nervous for the next 2 weeks. I'm not only worried about more attacks, but also worried about something like what happened to you. Even if during the ultrasound 2 weeks ago they did not see any inflammation or infection, that doesn't mean something hasn't changed, and especially after my last attack which was the most painful. And besides all of that... my diet is now extremely limited to try to prevent another attack, which is leaving me extremely hungry and without much energy or strength at all. I've also felt some level of pain almost constantly, just not always a higher level of pain. Today I'm feeling better than I have for the last 2 weeks, but I'm still able to feel twinges of pain now and again in my right side.

So again, thank you for sharing your experience too!

And welcome to the forum!

The big issue I've had after is that I have a really hard time eating anything at all haha. Whether it be healthy or not, I have good days and bad days, but I still get sick just the same. I like live at my gastro now.

Good luck and I hope that you have a normal experience with yours! Haha.
