you have not reported what your worry is about the anesthesia. this isn't any longer a large deal truly. like the previous answer reported, you get a tranquilizer like Valium or something, and then you're all comfortable for the anesthesia. You pass evening-evening for a sleep, and once you awaken, you're "healed" of your disease. trust those men, they have finished lots of those, and once you're on your well being facility room previously, tell the nurse about your worry. they have lots of adventure and this is variety of a "uncomplicated" technique, no biggy. have you ever advised your well being care specialist that you're fearful of the anesthesia and requested for a community anesthesia quite so that you'll be able to stay wide awake (in case you pick to)? i will guess very virtually all and dissimilar you search for suggestion from with who has had this surgical operation can allow you to already know the way little of a large deal it really is. So relax. you does no longer be having this surgical operation in case your gallbladder wasn't giving you important issues. i might want to be more effective fearful of *no longer* having the surgical operation.

Diet and gallbladder surgery

This page is about how gallbladder cancer surgery can affect your diet. You can find information on

* General effects of surgery
* Your bowels after surgery

General effects
If you have had surgery to your abdomen it can be a shock to your system. Generally, there are no long term restrictions on your diet after gallbladder surgery, though some people do complain of increased gas or bloating after meals for up to several weeks after surgery. In most cases these changes are temporary and will improve within a few weeks of having your operation. But if you have had very major surgery, with the removal of other organs such as the pancreas, then you may have problems digesting your food. You may not feel like eating much and eating small meals often may seem easier than having 3 large meals a day.

There is information about diet and pancreatic surgery that you may find useful in the Living with Pancreatic Cancer section of CancerHelp UK. But remember this section is about a different type of cancer, and you will need to use your back button at the top left of your browser window to return to this gallbladder cancer information.


Your bowels after surgery
About 20 out of every 100 people (20%) who have their gallbladder removed will have diarrhoea afterwards. A healthy gallbladder stores the bile that is made by your liver. Your liver continues to make the same amount of bile as it did before. But now your gallbladder is no longer there to store it, the bile flows directly from the liver into your small bowel. Your small bowel absorbs a lot of this, but not all of it. So the extra bile then passes into your large bowel (colon). The bile holds water in the large bowel, causing loose watery stools. Also, after your gallbladder has been taken out, your stools tend to stay in your bowel for less time. So you have more frequent bowel motions.

Diarrhoea will improve with time, but unfortunately, it can last for many years. This can make everyday life more difficult. Being continuously worried about having an accident with your bowels when you are out is a big strain. Some things may help. You could

* Eat a high fibre diet to absorb excess water and make your bowel motions more bulky
* Ask your doctor to recommend anti-diarrhoea medicine to slow down your bowel
* Avoid foods that can make diarrhoea worse – caffeine in tea and coffee, dairy products, spicy and fatty foods
* Wear a small pad in your pants – it may feel strange but might help to prevent embarrassing moments in public and so help you feel more confident

Start off with mild food - scrambled eggs, toast, plain rice.
Gradually reintroduce foods with more seasoning, one at a time, to see how your digestive system reacts. Gradually reintroduce foods you used to eat and gauge your body's reaction to those, too. You may not be able to ever handle very greasy foods again. I've learned from experience. Stay away from high sodium foods. I can't even drive by an Arby's without my digestive tract cringing in agony. Best wishes.

I am not sure why the foods would have to be non-fatty, but you should stay away from fatty foods beforehand!!! You should eat a light diet, probably clear liquids and bland foods... I was thrilled when I had mine out because I could FINALLY eat fatty foods again!

the doctor told me to wait two days after the surgery to start eating normal.I love to eat and I couldn't fast or diet after the surgery.hopefully my organism react normal,which it doesn't happen to everybody.You'll know what is ok or what's not,but the secret, after each meal try camomile tea it helps you digest fast and burns the fat.Just remember the only difference now is that you liver will work by itself without the help of the gallbladder, so take care.Good luck!

I and my younger daughter had ours out. The Dr told me to stay away from spicy foods for awhile, and to start small with them at first. Like only one small slice of pizza to start. Pork now makes me have severe diareah. And I cut all (or most) the fat from beef before cooking it. You can eat a normal meal. You can eat hamburgers, maidrites, steak, roast, anything non spicy. Potatoes, veggies, even icecream. And cheese helped me with my diareah. Stay away from onions for awhile. Very little pepper, or other spices,or at least use very little.

just try something easy on you stomach. you gallbladder released bile that helped emulsify fat for digestion. so if you eat fat, you will get diarrhea more than likely. eating light and chew your food good will be the best for you. i would suggest introducing everything slowly to see how your digestion reacts.

Your best source of information should be the surgeon performing the surgery.
