HI there! Just wanted to tell you that I had surgery almost a month ago. I did REALLY well with it. I was very nervous because I heard about chronic diahrrea after the surgery, but I believe b/c I was normally C, I don't have any problems. I am off all meds and feeling pretty good. My gallbladder was not functioning and my surgeon took it out ASAP. The laproscopic surgery is a piece of cake--you're a bit sore, but nothing too bad. They do put carbon dioxide and liquid inside you during the surgery which can linger for awhile, and I'm even still having some gas pains from that. Still, it's just a twinge here or there vs. bad bad right side pain I had before. So, for me- surgery was easy, and made a fantastic difference. I'm not even 100% sure I need to be doing an IBS diet, as that seems to have gone away as well! Hope this helps!
