Hi wren, my pcp recommended me for the surgery and advised me to see the surgeon, thats the only opinions ive gotten. ive been thinking myself if this is enough to go ahead with it. my mom and a few cousins have had theirs removed back in the day when it was done open surgery...i do notice some things make the pain worse ate a pretty big sandwich for lunch and i feel the pain...will keep you posted on the outcome.
thanks

Hi Donna!


The pain could be from the gallbladder.
