It feels like someone is stabbing me in my ribs with a knife!

It was really bad last night and started again today.

Im going to the hospital tomorrow for a scan and blood work.

Has anyone had a gallbladderremoval,and what was it like??

Well it was easier than the bypass. I had issues with the hospital I went to, but the actual surgery was easy. I was playing soccer a week later.

I have an appt with my surgeon tomorrow, I've been having the same issues!!

Ughhh it hurts!

Yes it is really bad,I could not sleep last night,and now I cannot stand up stright.

Luckily it does not sound like a big deal to have the removal done.

Good luck tomorrow!

Big hug

I just had my gallbladder removed last Saturday. It was a horrible pain ... It all happened while at work. I was rushed to the ER and admitted two days later it was out. I had to wait because in on blood thinners. I personally thought that it was painful. Still a bit sore around the belly button and right side of my belly but feeling much better now that's its gone! Good luck to you ladies!

I am 4 weeks out from gallbladder surgery and it hurt like

HADES!! This was the worst pain I have ever felt and that's having all 3 of my kids natural. Sorry to scare you but everyone is different just like with the gastric bypass

I had my gallbladder out ten years ago. (I'm still pre op for the rny) You'll be back on your feet soon and feeling so much better.

My gallbladder surgery was worse then my rny. I ended up 6 months after that surgery having to go to another surgeon to figure out why I was still having pain and he said I could have that for a few days to months to years or life. I had the surgery in 2010 and last summer I quit having those sharp side pains.

My gallbladder surgery was fine about 10 years ago. In less than a week I was up and running around. The gallbladder attacks hurt a hell of a lot worse than post op pain. the biggest pain was just the incision sites. Granted I was younger but I've always been a wimp about pain.

I wonder why they don't just take it out during rouxny because are there many ppl who don't eventually have it out. I had mine out 6 month from my bypass the pain from surgery was not as bad as pain from gallbladder hurting
