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

    • He/she followed me and my friends quite a long way along the road so we worried they might be out of their catchment area. Quite dusty paws which also made me think perhaps they’d been roaming away from home for a few days. Took photos in case anyone is missing them! Very pretty, friendly long-haired black and white cat, leopard print collar, pink paw-print metal tag. They eventually stopped following us across the road from Mrs Robinson.
    • I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.
    • I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?
    • I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy.  I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
