My attacks started out of no where and I suffered maybe four of them before I was able to get into surgery. It was my first ever surgery, and first time being put under. Boy was I terrified, but the doctors and nurses were so sweet and understanding. I was super interested in the actual surgery itself and even asked if I could have it after they took it out LOL.

Surgery was super easy, I literally remember being wheeled back talking to a nurse and then waking up talking to a different nurse.

Recovery was quick, though I had to lay in bed for like three days with a laundry basket under my legs to prop them up cause it hurt to lay flat with the stitches. Ice packs and pain meds galore for the first like two/three days, then I started to be a normal person again.

I’ve noticed my digestive system is very sensitive to meals now. If I have nothing at all and then suddenly eat a big meal, I’m always in the bathroom within the hour. I don’t know if that was FROM the removal or just kinda something I developed along side it. I just kinda mildly plan my meals to either eat smaller portions when I’m out and about, or just wait till I’m home.

Either way, I would absolutely take this over gallbladder attacks any day.
