Gastric sleeve and gallbladder removal together
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi guys, just after some advise or personal stories.
I'm fortunate enough to have started bariatric surgery under the NHS, I spoke to my surgeon this week who wants to remove my gallbladder at the same time as I already have gallstones from previous fast weight loss, he's told me sleeve without removing the gallbladder would be bad as I'd suffer alot worse than I already have.
Anyone else had both done at once?
A lady who I live near had to have 2 separate surgeries at the same place I'm going to have it done.

Both of these conditions are related to
What you eat.
I have had gallstones, and I went to emergency many a nights to have a morphine shot
Most times the gallbladder attacks were from eating
Too much fat at once or very spicy foods
I have recently cut wheat from my diet completely
And have not had a gallbladder attack since
And feel much healthier
I did not have gallbladder surgery.
It really depends if you eat really healthy
I don't think you would even need a
Gallbladder surgery and you might
Lose weight too and not need
The bariatric surgery

you might be better on a wgt loss surgery forum where there will be people who will understand better the complex situation regarding bariatric surgery and gall bladder removal surgery rather than just gall stone trouble on it's own which is a different matter - I am sure the surgeon and bariatric team will do what is best for you and your particular health status - good luck
