    had gall bladder removed 10 years ago due to impacted stones in my bile duct, due to blockage I became very ill with a number of organ infections.

    following surgery my doctor put me on olaprozole (1 tablet per day). have been on it ever since, it has been effective I can eat most things within reason.

    will I ever be able to stop taking this and will my body adjust to stopping or is it a life sentence ??????
