Gallstone Problems, Anyone Else After Surgery?

[honk 780]

I had my gall bladder removed two months post OP due to the rapid weight loss mine got infected' date=' dialated and I had never had issues prior to my surgery and by that time I was at a 65lb loss Two months out so my bariatric Dr got me in three days after my horrible attack and removed it! The recovery was worse than my lapband surgery but 6 weeks out and I'm finally just feeling normal again!! I wish he would have taken it out during my lapband surgery since this can be an known issue with the rapid weight loss!

Glad you're feeling better![/quote']

My doctor warns of gall bladder issues but won't remove during LB. Something about banding is placement only, GB is cutting something out. Which can lead to infection.

Marketingdude, thanks for your kind words. Randi, glad you're feeling better, I pray I get to that point! Honk you are so right, I wondered the same thing but two different surgeries in there...

Donna, you are not alone this journey, nor are you the only person who has had these problems. It is part of the program. Accept it, don't second guess it and get well soon!
