Unlike decades ago when gallbladder removal surgery left you weeks in bed and with a large scar, today’s keyhole surgery makes it much easier on doctors and patients.
I had my gallbladder removed in January 2010 after losing weight too fast and developing gallstones. This ended up causing my gallbladder to become infected.
Truly, a gall attack is one of the most painful things you can experience; something some mothers compare to childbirth. The best thing you can do is have it removed.
Two key things to remember:
*Surgery does not solve all pain. You can still get phantom pains.
*Pain in the body can refer, meaning pain under your ribs on your left side and pain up into your right shoulder can mean gallbladder problems.
