Hi, this is for all of you out there that are living with gallstones and wondering if your life is ever going to get any better.
I suffered with severe pains caused by gallstones for years. For those of you that have had attacks you will know what I mean when I say it was the worst pain ever. It was like having a heart attack withouth the relief of death and it would last for up to 12 hours. And nothing took the pain away.
I was misdiagnosed with acid reflux and without boring you manyyears later it was eventually discovered that I had gall stones and I had the operation to have the gallbladder removed.
I was nervous about it and I was scared going into the operation and about what would happen afterwards.
Most people, you see, who recover from this never come back to a board to tell people that it's going to be okay. So you only ever read about all the bad stuff that's happened.
So, let me say. I dont suffer from the runs, I dont have any more pain, I eat whatever I want, I can drink alcohol, and in short I have my life back again without any pains. And it's great.
So, I recommend if you have gallstones and your in any sort of pain get the gallbladder removed because it will just get worse and worse.
And dont focus on all the bad things you hear might happen as a result of having it out. Life is great without it for me. And it will be for you too.
So, I wish you all a speedy recovery. And enjoy eating chocolate again when you do.
Love to you all.
Michael
