Just wondered if anyone reading this forum has had their gall bladder removed and if they could tell me (perhaps via private message) the honest lowdown on this. I have googled the subject but it seems only people unhappy with the procedure bother to post online about their experience. I am supposed to have this op this week and am wondering if I'm making a mistake and would be better simply to carry on as I am, simply eating a low fat diet.

My best friend had hers removed about six months ago and has had no problems at all - she was relatively young to get the problem (late thirties) and not overweight, etc but had it removed and is as healthy as ever. She's just a bit annoyed as being on the low fat diet before the op meant she lost loads of weight but since the op and gone back to 'normal' eating has gone back to normal weight! but think she's very happy to have had the op. (hers was done at Lewisham hospital)

I suffered so much pain before I had my gallbladder removed. Now that I had it removed,it haven't effect me at all as I've always have a low fat diet anyway. Glad I had it removed, only down side for me was for some reason the doc cut across my stomach rather than a keyhole. Dont regret it though.

Good luck

    • Hey are these two keys with no keyring? I lost them a while back so not sure if they will be the same!
    • Another glowing review for Julian!! I am now referring to Julian as ‘the legend’. I had spent 5 years waiting until I could afford to get some cupboards built in, and I couldn’t be happier. I am often allergic to overbearing advice when it comes to work I have commissioned and am paying for, but I found Julian’s advice so helpful. He offered his opinion about my plans in a very constructive way, and helped me come up with a much better plan. His ideas were better than mine! Not something I usually like to admit. The work was exemplary, and he cleared up beautifully. He was communicative and a pleasure to deal with. I am so delighted with my cupboards and floating shelves. He doesn’t paint them, but I think that is better, as it’s a specialist job, and it means you can either save money and paint them yourself, or get a painter and decorator to paint them properly. He is a brilliant carpenter. The only problem now is that I have so much more hanging space thanks to his advice, that I may not get rid of all the old clothes I can no longer fit into!  Anyway, highly highly recommended if you need fitted carpentry cupboards or shelves, and want to work with someone who cares about the outcome. Thank you so much Julian! 
    • For many years I went to Ken's on NXR.  He was pretty much the only barber  in ED  Now we have more barbers than you could shake a stick at - all the way down from the Plough through to DKH and some are empty of customers - even on the evenings and weekends.  I never ceased to be amazed that they continued to operate despite not having clients and realised that they were probably into money-laundering - just like the sweet shops along Oxford street. I went once to one on LL and certainly wasn't impressed with their. My dear wife has cut my hair ever since. I don't believe in supporting criminals.

    • People are more likely to go back and retrace their route rather than look on the EDF.  If you’re reluctant to and them on a fence or something, perhaps you could put a note with your phone number there
