Hey put me on a different medication to help prevent gallstones....yes but obviously it didn't work as good lol

Awwweeee sorry about that. Glad you found out what was wrong though. I've been there and Gallbladder pain hurts like crazy. Have a speedy recovery!

Mine was 6 weeks after my sleeve. I agree, better to be safe than sorry. It's an easy surgery and bad things could happen if you don't get it out. Gallbladder attacks hurt like the dickens!! Good luck!

I'm 4 months out and developed gallstones . Scheduled for surgery on Thursday. Apprehensive.

What's Apprehensive mean? Sorry lol

My doc actually looked at my gallbladder before surgery and found 3 gallstones. They took out my gallbladder during surgery. Did they not do a sonogram before surgery? I hear of so many people needing to have it out afterwords.

What are the symptoms?

What are the symptoms?

First I dont have all signs of it but the most one I looked out was right side pain in the middle! It's dull but gets sharp,nausea,vomiting. U can look it up but that's mainly my symptoms!
