I finally got my date today! I will be getting my surgery on March 9th!!! I am so excited and 100 things are running through my head! Any advice from people who have already had the surgery? Any one else getting theirs done in March??

Those of you who had gallbladder surgery what happened? I was given meds to help with that.

I ended up with stones and an infected gallbladder. What meds did you get?

I had stones in my gull bladdar. I was having issues eating and therefore wouldn't eat until I was forced to. Doctor was doing testing and had actually gotten the results of the ultrasound and bloodwork back saying that it was bad. I ended up in the ER at 2am with really bad pain so instead of being scheduled I got fit into the next day. I was actually released same day (I had surgery at 4:00 pm and home by 10:00 pm.) The surgery was Tuesday, I was home today resting (I ran some errands but mom drove), tomorrow I plan on going into work. I don't have a ton of leave due to the fact that I missed 3 weeks due to my bariatric surgery. I am supposed to have family coming in 2 weeks and wanted to spend the week off with them.

Sassycas so happy for you. I lost 43 and have just stopped. I can eat anything and too much of it. Losing momentum and eating feelings again

He gave me ursodiol 2x a day for 6 months

Since I started the pre-surgery diet I've lost 76 lbs and am now 98.6 pounds from my highest weight. I am so grateful for my sleeve.

I was getting stomach pains (a super uncomfy tightness) - dr said it was better to come out on our terms rather then waiting for an emergency (after u/s - it was confirmed I had gall stones). dr said 1 out of 5 will get it after WLS. I just happened to be the 1. Surgery and recovery went well. I was back to walking my 3+ miles after a believe 5 days. (Walked a lot at a local festival 2 days after surgery so it was an easy recovery).

Great job! I am so thankful too!

Says online that it dissolves gallstones

Ok. I had never heard of it. Another friend said her dr prescribed a med for her too. Weird.

My surgery was on March 25th. I have lost 104lbs. I was a size 24 now I'm a size 17/18 (tight 16). I'm 5'7" and want to lose 60lbs. I'm currently 209lbs

This comparison is from 2 weeks ago.

That's awesome
