How much do you think gallstones weigh, anyway?

January 7th, 2009

I’m scheduled for my gallbladder removal surgery tomorrow at 7:30 am. That means at the hospital at 5:30, which also means leaving the house by 4:45.

4:45.

In the morning.

Or in the middle of the night, really.

Anyhow, I’ll catch you on the flip side, peeps. Here’s to heavy gallstones and a post-op weight loss!

    We’ll be thinking about you! Oh, and don’t forget that they pump you full of IV fluid so don’t weigh yourself until about a week after the surgery! Take care -

    Ugh, but at least you got it scheduled! Good luck!

    I’m so glad they finally got it scheduled and it’s going to be out & done with! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

    Hope it goes well- like I said, I felt SO MUCH better after I had the silly thing removed- and I noticed no difference in digestion, either. (Though I had lived for a long time without a functioning gall bladder, so my body had already adjusted.)

    Let us know how it goes!!

    Hope you recover quickly and as painlessly as possible. I wish you all kinds of happiness, Erica. Take Care.

    I lost half a lb after they took it out :-)

    I already know you’re all right, I read your tweet but I just wanted to say, ‘what up, yo?’
