Hi there,

I just had my gall bladder taken out on the January 6th in an emergency surgery. My original WLS date was February 12th, but I decided to move it to March. I was wondering for those who have had the surgeries back to back how you dealt with it. Were there any problems? Any issues with scarring, mobility and things of that nature. I guess I am a little afraid now of having another surgery so soon since my incissions are still healing. Plus, I am wondering if having one surgery will make the healing time for the second longer. Anything will help. Thanks.

i had my gall bladder out in nov and im due to get wls 5 th feb.. so close enough.. im bak to normal now healed n going about my days, i was bak at worl after 5 days.. my biggest thing that i think may affect my wls is that food 2 weeks post op just goes straight thru me after i eat, dont know if its the same for others or u but woried it will affect my wls but thats my experience

I have not yet had WLS but I did want to comment on this -

I had emergency surgery to remove my gall bladder back in August. I still have some issues with food going "straight thru". This is usually the greasier foods, though. I was warned about this when I had the surgery. As long as I am mindful of what I eat, it's not so bad.

I don't think it'll make a negative impact on your WLS but you could always mention this to your surgeon or nutrionist and let them know what you are experiencing.
