I understand the procedure is much better now than it was 20 years ago....let's hope your recovery is the same!

Re: Gall Bladder Removal

Pretty easy.  Home before noon from a 9:30 procedure.  Four little slits in my belly covered by steri-strips (no stitches).  Only soreness is lower abdominal muscles.....they must have torqued them a little to get where they wanted to go.  Otherwise, good to go.  Might sneak out of the house tomorrow to get a little fishing in if it warms up enough in the afternoon.

lol lol lol  not any more than normal I guess.......just had several small gall stones in it. 

I do know that my wallet weighs a whole lot less.....even with BC/BS.  I was a little taken back when they told me the up front amount to be paid at the registration desk.

Re: Gall Bladder Removal

Well....glad you did good. Any time you go for "surgery"...break out the wallet.

My new knees were worth about two nice boats!
