Gallbladder Surgery Coming Up And Scared. Posted: 10-24-04 08:18am
Hi everyone. I posted hear a couple times
and have gotten some helpful information.
Well, I have a low gallbladder ejection
fraction (20%) and am scheduled for
surgery in the beginning of november. I
am scared to death. I'm not really that
afraid of the surgery itself. I guess i'm
afraid of what will happen after surgery.
Afraid that it will make me sick, I will
have diarrhea that will not go away, or
that it won't take care of the terrible
nausea and other symptoms that I have been
having for 4 years. I guess I don't
really have any questions, just looking
for some good thoughts from people who
have been through this. I am only 31 and
live alone. I didn't expect to have a
major health issue this soon in life. My
mom will be coming down to stay with me
for a few days after surgery. Thanks to
everyone who posts on here, it's great to
have a place like this.

I had mine taken out around april, I
still have diarrhea and that sucks but I
dont have the pain that I did. I do feel
nausea alot too but I have been playing
with different remmedies to try to stop
all of this. The pain after the surgery
really wasnt all that bad just try to sit
still alot/.
