I did much research and had many critics on weather or not I should do my surgery in all it took just over a year including a postponement to finally get here. My travel partner was a close friend and retired physician how was impressed with the facilities staff and accommodations. This put my mind at ease from there I just let it happen. I'm sure we've all read the risks the before and after issues and I'm happy to say I had minimal issues beyond soreness and just a general nervousness overall. Sounds cliche but Yes I whisk I did it sooner! I well say getting the gallbladder removed may have been Benifited me - the saliva quickly filled my stomach and I experienced a lot a spitting making it s challenge to get my perception meds and nutrition down. Be aware that in the beginning simply taking your pills can fill your stomach. Taking your vitamins nutrients and protein are essential once you can tolerate; as well as a light firming exercise not just walking but working your arms this well Benifits you in toning your skin down the road. I'm now down pounds although I'm working on toning my skin I can't wait to follow up with a skin removal/ tightening procedure. I hate the sagging skin! But that's a good problem to have compared to all the physical and medical problems I had a 7/8 months ago.
