Great to be alive. Woke up a few hours ago from a gallbladderectomy and back home now. I'm taking the rest of the week off. [:Y:]

Good to hear it went well Haans! Take it easy......it's major surgery even though they have it down to orthscopic procedures so don't strain. Had mine out a few years back. Took 3 or 4 months for everything to regulate so to speak <smile>. It's sure nice to not have the attacks!

Keep on waking up,
Joe

I'm pretty sure gall bladders are over rated anyway. Glad all the important parts are still in tact. Heal well Haans.

Good for you. Sometimes when people ask me "how are you doing?" I will say Great!! But I'm getting better!

I can hear the Pathologist now. What the @!##--these gallstones are pure nitrocellulose. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Haans, glad to hear you are recovering well.
Put the feet up for a while, and all the best for a full recovery.

Take off more than the rest of the week, if mine is any example.

Thanks for all the kind words folks! pretty out of it this morningm didn't sleep much last nite. kllllllllllllllllzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...oops, jsut dozed off (really) for a moment. Achy all over, and think I'm having a reaction to the oxycodone. Itched all over last nite.

Get well soon, and get back to building those gorgeous Oak gits. You've inspired me to cut down all my step dads' oak trees!

Hang in there Haans... I feel your pain (..kinda like you did about 200 too many situps!)
Had mine out in '03 after a giant stone (over 2cm apparently) turned me a lovely yellow/green & almost killed me (...talk about needing a good plumber!!)

Take it easy Haans. We'll all be thinking about you. They can take the bladder, but they'll never get the gall out of you! :D [clap] [clap]

Dave, I didn't have gallstones, but I did have a excretion fraction of 13%...normal is 35-70%. Seems as though I might feel a little better, hard to tell through the pain. Thanks Waddy, I'll be back at it soon.
Back to nappies...

Been there, done That! Don't miss it. One of the best things that ever happened to me was getting that thing jerked out. Much better! Get well soon!
