At last i got my appointment to see the surgeon about my gallstones. Can anyone help on how long after this appointment does it take to get the surgery for the gallbladder? As ive been in pain everyday for the past 4 months and can't wait to feel normal again thanks.

Hi, i was diagnosed about 8 weeks ago with gallstones i had an ultrasound done with them. I have been in pain for 5 months now constant pain in my stomach at the right side also get tje feeling of a heart attack which is quite scary before i was diagnosed. As Iam only 30 with a young son was at the doctors 6 times in 2 weeks and on call doctors out during the night the pain shoots from 0-10 in minutes! Wouldnt wish it on anyone, iam petite anyway and lost over 2.5 stone which is making me fell very sick and dizzy it's been a struggle most times and hoping to get it all sorted soon, was admitted to hospital last sunday to get sent home to see my GP! Who now thinks i have something wrong with my stomach to go for an endoscopy. It's not a nice thing to go through and hope you all get better soon.

Its not a nice thing to go through especially having kid/s to look after. I do you take a lot of antacid tablets and pain killers I find a hot water bottle can sometimes ease the pain. I can usually put up with pain but when i eventually went to the doctor it was like begging them to help after a few weeks they kept saying it was just gastric and possible stomach ulcer. Hope it's all over soon.

Mine in total was 10 weeks as it was ready to rupture.
Have they not given you a chose and book option so that you could get it done quicker in a private hospital under the NHS funding. Worth asking your gp about this option.
Hope they get you sorted soon x
