Having a wee set back 4 months out.
Well I was disappointed to learn the source of my tummy cramps is gallstones and the gallbladder has gotta come out. I have been having some cramps for a few weeks and was ordered an ultrasound. I spoke to my surgeon today and tada !!!! I am very glad thats all it is and not something worse. Its not my bowels or something crazy like that. But I cannot fathom having surgery again....and back to Toronto I go for it...however I know its best and the pain will be gone after they take the sucker out. Its just kinda depressing to think I am gonna be back on the table again shortly.

Sorry to hear, Arlene! :( The good news is, it's a pretty simple procedure and shouldn't have you off your feet for long at all. Glad it's nothing more serious!
