Small Stones And Gallbladder Removal Posted: 01-30-07 20:42pm
How long should a person wait to have
their gallbladder removed if it has
12 small stones and gallbladder is
otherwise healthy. No sludge, no
inflammation, however, 3 gallstone attacks
in one month--diagnosis then made of 12
small gallstones. What is the time-frame
on this type of situation?
Healthy male age 18, stones and attacks
are a brand new problem.
I think its more of a personal preference
, I am in the same boat and since january
i get a pain attack once a week and 4 in
one week last week. The dr told me to let
him know wheni wanted it removed and im
waiting on a call back from him actually
to set up a constult. I chose to do this
due to the frequent pain attacks and my
husband might possibly be deployed soon.
So i didnt want to run into problems with
him not being here etc. ID prob get
checkups if u choose to wait it out to
make sure all is ok with it though.
