Gall stones - Page 2

mousepod · 04-30-2010, 10:37 AM

I didn't have gallstones either, just one nasty kidney stone. I opted not to have it removed surgically and it caused me several horrible episodes of agony for 3 months. They finally did go in and get it. I wouldn't wish that kind of pain on anyone, even a Republican. scaeagles - if your doctor thinks it needs to come out - I'd seriously consider following his advice.

Feel better.

4 months? Yuck.

I'm so sorry scaeagles. I have no practical advise to offer, as - knock keyboard - have no experience with the Make-Me-Want-To-Just-Die condition. Best of luck, and well wishes.

I'm sorry you're going through this. On the bright side, this seems pretty straightforward. I know a couple people who've had the gallbladder taken out, and they've done quite well afterward. And the surgery is usually done laparoscopically.

Sorry to hear that, Leo. Hang in there.

Seriously, I have nothing to offer other than, as silly as it sounds, the marking of your body with instructions is not a bad idea.

I'm a total pain wimp, and my three kidney stone experiences have been horrible. Hope you don't have to go through anything nearly so painful. Be well!

Honey Nut Cheerios have the same fat content as Saltines. I'm going for it.
