Gallbladder Surgery (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=278856)

Getting your GB removed should help people lose weight if the grease doesn't get broken down.

I already shit like a champion, if I had my GB removed I would be dangerous.

the longer you wait, the worse the poison in your body and you might have to have IV antibiotics before they can remove the GB. Very true about the restroom issue.

I had mine out, then had horrible RR issues. It was after that they discovered the Crohn's and other complications. I asked my doctor if having the GB removed caused the Crohn's (I knew nothing about it then...know way more now) He said no, the Crohn's likely caused the GB mess.

So I'm wondering if Im having this problem. I wake up in the middle of the night with back pain. Gets worse progressively thru the night. Lately its even moving to the front a little bit but on the right OR left side. If I poke myself on the right side I dont feel any tenderness though.

I haven't really tried to eat real healthy food for a day and see if it subsides so I will try that in the interim. Ive had nocturnal back pain for about a year now. Then in the day it goes away but lately it is lasting longer after I wake up.

i miss gracie dean, aka noswad. i hope wherever she is she is at peace.

Is bevis still kicking?

If it's the gallbladder then the pain would be under the lower right side of the rib cage. Usually it starts there and radiates directly through to your back.

Gallbladder surgery sucks but you get over it. I feel way lighter and I only poop alot during work.

I was wondering where she was, didn't know if she passed away or what. It looks like one of her last posts was in this thread. Been a long time.

I have to disagree with the "shits" thing being permanent. It is tough at first, long term is dependent on diet. It was explained to me that the gallbladder creates the bile that breaks down grease and fats. Without it, they kind of flow through your system without breaking down (read very quickly!).

I was pretty much back to normal after a few years. Did increase fiber/greens though and tried to decrease fat for basic health reasons anyway, so that may have helped.

The gallbladder doesn't create bile, it stores it. When you get your gallbladder removed the bile runs freely from your liver to your bowels. Versus storing it in your gallbladder and just using it when you to digest fatty foods. Once your gallbladder is removed, the free flowing of bile into your bowels can create digestive issues in some people.

I had an issue with my gallbladder several years back. Had a gallbladder attack landed in the hospital they gave me antibiotics, told me that I should get it removed when the inflammation goes down. I opted instead for controlling it with a strict non-fat diet. 3- 4 years later I can pretty much eat anything within a reason. I did change my eating habits and I ate a lot of small meals rather than big ones. But like I said now it's pretty much normal but I got into my diet so much that I've stayed on it. It's basically a Mediterranean diet low fat low carb. No Dairy hardly at all. Had an ultrasound on my gallbladder and most of my stones have dissolved, or have been excreted without getting stuck in my bilary system.

That's all well and good for someone with an inflamed gallbladder, but doesn't really help someone with gallstones.
