My gallbladder hates me..

I have not even had surgery yet but my gallbladder is giving me terrible issues. I was crying last night due to the pain and all the hosptal did was send me home with norcodics the last time I went. I figured there was no reason for me to go since they probably would not do anything. I see my new surgeon on the 14th but I do not know if I can last that long.. It just sucks that they don't take it out with the RNY surgery... I will probably have to have it removed before I have the RNY. I don't want to do it before though because they already had to reschedule my surgery due to me having a UTI. What should I do?

They should take it out with your RNY if you have problems with it.  But if you can't wait that long, then I'd have it out ASAP.

My doctor does not take it out the same time as the RNY anymore. I don't have many other options for surgeons because my husband is in the military and we see military doctors.

If it is acting up that badly why wouldn't they remove it at the same time as RNY?   Why would they rather do two surgeries than one?  Our government in action, I suppose.

Hope you feel better soon and get some relief, one way or the other. As someone who had gallbladder problems following RNY, I feel your pain.
