    I had mine down 8 weeks before my RNY. I had it on a Friday and went back to work on Monday. I think it was easier than the RNY recovery. Some of the same stuff like gas pains.

    Gallbladder pain is typically on the right side, accompanied by nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.

    Recovery for me was very easy. I was up shopping the next day. I had mine removed after my last pregnancy. I'm kind of happy that I already have it out of the way before surgery.

    Just had my gall bladder out after the third week of my gastric bypass. My big issues is not being able to hold down my Protein drinks. I can handle general protein, but every drink I try makes me ill. Frustrated as I want to succeed and have been but know I need more protein than the 50 I am receiving a day.

    Any help would be appreciated
