thanks for your prayers and thoughts....... she´s fine she just got discharged right this very second........everything went well..... they wanted to explore if any stone had moved so they can take them all out to prevent a pancreatitis...... none went "traveling"... now all she needs is to rest for a while and stay away from some few things......

and on another note her birthday is tomorrow......... what a crappy way to be....... but we´ll make her be comfy and all.......

I´m a bit concerned but not that much, althought I´m not sure if I should be more concerned...... my father also had some stones removed (well, when he went to the OR he passed them, my sister also had a mini stone or so she thought, now my mom...... could I be next?..... I mean I am carnivore and eat tons, literally tons of cheese.......and those things can create stones.... what do you think?? should I be more concerned?

I'm so sorry I did not see this thread sooner.

I'm glad all is well. Although she may not be feeling well, atleast she's got something to be happy about for her birthday - she's out of the hospital!

Glad to hear all went well! Happy Birthday to your mom - hopefully she has some painkillers that will allow her to enjoy the day a bit.

I would say to talk to your doctor about cheese and stones. But if you already know they cause stones - you might want to ask him about preventatives. Acidic juices (cranberry, etc?), or Google some info.

Hugs to your mom and all your family!

In my family, no one dies with a gall bladder. At some point, almost everyone ends up getting it removed. It started with my mom's mom. Both my mom and one of her sisters had it removed and so did my brother. Even one of my cousins younger than me had hers removed. On my dad's side, both of his parents had theirs removed. My dad had 4 sisters and 2 brothers, 3 of the girls had it out and one of the guys did. Stragely enough, I still have mine and don't (knock on wood) have any problems. I actually had a doctor suggest removing it as a preventative measure.
