Removed gallbladder

[Guest guest]

Susie;

Sue, I've still been here I just haven't been taking the time to write. Thanks

for your note though.

I am so sorry to hear of the trouble you're haviing. I have wished this would

have gone much smoother for you than it has. There are so many possible causes

of the continued problems and like you noted the pancreas is certanly one of

them.

I would think that maintaining a diet that has a controled fat content

throughout the day would help in some way. This would provide the intestines a

flow of food that will use the bile instead of the bile usiing the food. Seems

really contradictory to what shoud be happening, or we would have hoped to

happen, but I would imagine a fiber diet wtih fats will help you deal with the

lose of the gallbladder and may help you to gain some normalsy.

It is so difficult to have to live by a diet plan, but in some cases it is the

means to having a more normal existance. I mean it probably is very nice to have

those rare moments of having a regular stool compared to loose or wet ones, and

feel somewhat 'normal' again. Then try to figure out all the combination of

things that it took to do that.

Hang in there and thanks for sticking with the group to help warn them of the

dangers of not having a gallbladder.
