Hi, I had gastric sleeve surgery on the 15th of April and on the 1st of June had my gallbladder taken out as an emergency surgery. Never had any problems before with gallstones, but I am thinking I am still better off lighter and healthier and at least my gallbladder won’t make troubles anymore. I am healing well, but now have an abundance of small scars on my belly 😂

Did any of you have Gall Bladder issues prior to wls? I have had 2 really bad bouts and several not so bad bouts of Gall Bladder "attacks". I am preop (10/1/19) and after reading some info online, I decided to let the doctor rip it out on 5/9/19.

The article I read stated it was better to have it out prior to wls. But, then again....you can find exactly what "you" want to read or hear on the internet.

Not exactly but similarly I had gall bladder symptoms. during my last pregnancy. OB-Gyn argued with me, had multiple excuses for the pain. I was right, he was wrong, General surgeon took it out when Tomkitten was still a baby.
Yeah, I think you were wise to have it done, now get your Healthy back because this Autumn will be bringing you a Life Change too! God Bless and I wish you the Best NOW and also THEN!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
