[quote=Anonymous]I'm about 5 years out from having my gallbladder removed. Mine was not an emergency, surgery was laparoscopic. Immediate recovery was very good. Very minimal pain and I only managed it with Tylenol and Advil. Back to work after four days. More strenuous activity ramped up over next couple weeks. My diet was actually pretty good before gallbladder removal so I continue on with low salt, low fat, and no red meat. I stopped alcohol much before surgery and that continues. Other than the diet above, I can eat whatever I'd like. If I go outside that diet, moderation is the key. I might have had one or two ghost gallbladder attacks early on but they were nowhere near the gallbladder attack I had prior to surgery. Now if I feel any sort of stomach weirdness I'll pop a famotidine (Pepcid) and I'm good to go. Sorry this happened to you. Good luck to you going forward! [/quote]
