yes i had this in june

i healed quick (alittle shoulder pain for about 5 days but nothing pain meds couldnt help)

i had gallbladder surgery a few years ago so this was the same surgery and i wasnt scared at all

i looked at this at taking care of me and controlling my life and making myself well.

i wasnt sick (went #2 alot but that was the fluids in and fluids out thing) but imodium ad works (ask your dr always).......otherwise, i highly recommend it, hope this helps
