Hi guys , I haven't been around much the last couple months becasue I've been sick. I was in the hospital for a couple days back in August and have been going through test after test to see what was going on. Turns out it was my gallbladder. I didn't have stones or cysts, I had something called bile infarction (sp). Basically my gallbladder would fill up with bile and couldn't expell it. This would casue pain that mimicks a gallbladder attack. After seeing 5 different doctors I finally got a diagnosis and a surgery date, which was this past thursday. So far I'm doing okay, just sleeping alot becasue of te pain medication. But otherwise I am okay. Soooo, that's what has een going on the past couple months :) I wasn't tryig to ignore you guys ;) |

yessss… another gallbladder member.. lol now.. a word of advice to you.. my doctor told me that it takes up to a year for your abdominal wall to heal. At least that is what he said… so.. don't go moving any heavy decks or lifting anything extremely heavy… !!!
