Cause even sometimes its numbish on my back and it hurts when I put my back on somwthing, like a chair or sofa. I had this before the gallbladder attacks. Any ways I am just wondering.. I know yes I should ask the doctors about it and I will but on 16 July. Still 2 Weeks^^

Did anyone get a Gallbladder surgery when they also had other things like other diseases???
How is general Anasthesia????
For sure they do. A patient fills out a health history form, showing any other health problems, chronic diseases, previous procedures so the surgeon, anesthesiologists, anyone taking care of you knows about them. Before the surgery, your doctor, or a nurse who will be working with your case will go over your health history, and answer any questions or concerns you may have. And before the surgery, the anesthesiologist who will be taking care of you during the surgery will talk to you, explain what will happen, ask you again about your health history, and answer any questions you have. At least that's how its done here in the US, and I would imagine also where you are.

They are very much used to doing surgeries on people with other problems, and they do what they need to to make sure the patient does well during and after the surgery. They'll take care of you too.

I have atrial fibrillation, and have been on a blood thinner for over 18 years. When I went to the hospital, they put me on a vitamin K drip to get my blood to clot so they could operate. As a consequence, I was in the hospital for five days. Or maybe six, I was on painkillers most of the time. Discuss other conditions with your doctors - they can decide if there are additional steps they need to take due to your other conditions.

Regarding general anaesthesia - I've been under it a number of times. Be sure to mention your anxiety, they may want to give you something to help you relax in advance of the operation. With general anaesthesia, it's kind of like going to sleep but no dreaming or anything. One moment you're awake, the next you're awaking in the recovery room. The day after the operation, I was on the road heading home from my vacation with four little bandaids covering the laparoscopy scars. It was a LOT less unpleasant than I thought it would be.

They had me on pain killers before the operation. Once they started the pain killers, I didn't have any discomfort to speak of. Of course, this is all my personal experience -- I can't guarantee yours will be the same.

Thanks all for the answers. I know its best to actualy talk to the doctors and not ask in the internet.. But the appointment seems far away I know 2 weeks is not that far now but it feels long and since I am a person who thinks a lot about everything its hard to stay with questions on my own thats why I ask you guys and really appreiciate every single answer. I overreact for every thing and I just cannot stop it. I had been at a Psychologist for more than 5 years but it did not help me at all. I even went stationary clinic for depressions and it did not help either. Doc says it just got stuck in my head with what happened to my mother.it just was the pure horror. I had not been going to normal doctors for a long time after she passed. When I had some thing I just stayed with it like the backpain I have it for long time because I never wanted to go to any doctor. I tought any doctor just wants to kill me and not help me. Thats what I regret nowadays cause I am scared I have other things now cause I never gave a sh.t going to doctors...

There are a number of inexpensive apps for your phone or computer that can help with anxiety and depression. You might want to download one and see if it helps you get through the coming days:

https://adaa.org/finding-help/mobile-apps

If you'd prefer a book, I recommend Mind Over Mood by Greenberger and Padesky, and Feeling Good by David Burns. Both are widely available.

I will tell you of my gallbladder experience. It has been about 13 years since I went into hospital in the UK with pain. It turned out it was an infection which was sorted out with antibiotics but the docs did say that they could take it out while I was in hospital - if I wanted. I declined and did some research.

On Curezone, I discovered a number of liver and gallbladder flushes which people said were effective so I decided to go with the Andreas Moritz protocol.

This is my understanding of it, so you need to investigate for yourself.

This flush uses apple juice to soften the gall stones and epsom salts along with grapefruit juice to actually do the flush at the end of the 6 days softening the stones with the apple juice. I bought the book for the flush which is called The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush which goes into details how it works and what to be aware of.

I combined a series of this liver flush with use of a colema board and did see the results he predicted, so I never had to have surgery and I only very occasionally get gallbladder twinges (like someone is poking me in the right side with a finger). Usually this happens after a heavy meal or eating a banana.

Now, there are certain warnings which come with a do-it-yourself approach and I cannot tell you whether it is right for you. You have to decide what you do.

The most serious warning is that occasionally a gallstone might get lodged/stuck in the bile duct and can cause the pancreatic juices to back up and start to digest the pancreas. That becomes life-threatening very quickly. I think I am correct in saying, the pancreas and gall bladder share a route out to the gut so, depending on where or if a stone gets stuck, it could pose a problem. But, hey, thats what the apple juice/malic acid is for - to soften the gallstones so they dont get stuck.

There are other liver & gallbladder flushes too of course. Good luck.

Good for you. I don't have G.B. issues but for prevention I take ox bile and this keeps everything moving nicely for me.
