Recommended Posts

I have seen many,, many posts about gallbladder surgery after the surgery.

I had mine out last year. If I hadn't I would've insisted they removed it during surgery. Have read of so many people needing it out soon after wls. Both of my friends needed it out under emergency situations. They're fine now but what an unnecessary second operation.

Funny you should ask. I had my gallbladder out 5 days after I was sleeved. I realised I may have had some minor issues with it over the last year but never caused massive problems. 3 days after my sleeve surgery I started having pain on the right side. My bariatric surgeon had me go to the ER and after CT blood work and ultrasound it was found to be my gallbladder and the next morning I had surgery.

I'm a little over 3 months out and have been having gallbladder pain for about 2 weeks now. Just had an ultrasound done that showed a ton of stones so I'm going to get it taken out sometime this month. It's an unfortunately common issue after weight loss surgery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
