Message: <blockquote data-quote="lrebecca" data-source="post: 333517" data-attributes="member: 47088">I had my gallbladder removed at age 14 - I was messed around by my old GP who was insitent I was too young and that I had trapped wind! The scan revealed I had multiple stones but by the time they finally had me in to remove the gall bladder mine had become septic. I wonder now whether that added to my diabetes risk. I was in so much pain I was so thankful for getting the thing out and I would do it again to get rid of that agony. I had no problems after keyhole surgery but was in surgery for several hours because of the state of my gall bladder. I was having pethodine at home in the end because I was having frequent attacks. Everyone else in surgery that day had their little stone in a bottle but the surgeon said mine had ground to dust. Good luck with however you proceed with yours.Kind regards</blockquote>
