I had the surgery several years ago. The procedure is still done the same way. You will be a little sore but with the proper pain medication you should feel better in no time. One way to a fast recovery is to get up at start walking as soon as you can. The walking well help to make you pass gas which is clearing your system of the air that gets trapped in there. My 15 year old son is having test done on his gallbladder. Good luck and hope you start feeling better soon.
