Anyone have gall bladder issues? What were your symptoms?

About 8 wks after RNY surgery I had a real bad gall bladder attack. The pain was across my chest right under my boobs. It lasted about 2 hrs. and felt like a heart attack !!! I called my surgeon, he told me to have a ultrasound and I was loaded with stones. A week later I was back under the knife to have the GB removed ! I was lucky.. the surgeon that did the RNY also did the GB, he used the same incisions.

Was you on meds to prevent gall stones? I didn't have mine removed, but my doc put me on meds for 3 months to prevent them.

Yes I was on meds to prevent stones but my stones were there before RNY surgery since I had so many on them. I wish I knew that because I would of had him remove it while he was doing the RNY.
