Sayonara Gallbladder!
Jul 30, 2014
So I said good riddance to my gallbladder on Thursday. July 24, 2014. I had been having sharp pains near my belly button and my larger incision from the sleeve. Had an ultrasound and they found a ton of large gallstones . Fun... Anyhow my surgeon and I were prepared to get it out and to check if I had hernias, hence my pains. Turned out, all the pain was just radiating from my gallbladder. He said it was baaaad! Glad it got it out!
I was really being naive and thought this surgery would be easy... Everyone told me it would be. Although I think this one was a lot worse than my sleeve surgery. He did it laparoscopically (5 holes) and the largest incision is the same one he used before. Though he had to make it bigger. :O my gallbladder must have been really angry and huge lol.
So glad it's done and over with. Now, if only I can start sleeping that would be nice. :P
