Gall bladder failure FTMFL :/
So...I've been having some fairly intense pain in my abdomen and upper right shoulder after eating lately...I HATE going to the doctor...it usually takes a motorcycle crash or something to get me in there. (Fortunately, there's only been one of those and I got off relatively easy....broken right hip socket that I fully recovered from.)
Anyway...I went to the doctor and described my symptoms as I just couldn't eat anymore...ANYTHING I ate would set it off...got a hydascan...and it came back saying that my gall bladder ejection fraction was 4%...essentially a dead, non functioning organ.
I just left the surgeons office...he's going to remove it tomorrow at 2. He said he usually recommends a two week recovery time and I was like, seriously?! Two weeks?! I was planning to have it done tomorrow and be back to work on Monday.
Have any of you had it done? If so, how long was your recovery period afterwards?
