Question - people who had surgery

[Guest guest]

I'm going to voluntarily have my gall bladder removed. I just want to

hear about people's experiences who have had their gall bladder removed.

Yes, yes, everyone doesn't think it needs to be removed. I had a gall

bladder attack in July '06. Since then I have had out of control

triglycerides. I am eating a low-fat, low-carb diet....have taken

cholesterol meds...nothing seems to make a dent. I have even lost 31

lbs since then and my triglycerides are still above 1100 and now my HDL

is less than 19 - at the time of my gall bladder attack, my

triglycerides were 1585 with an HDL of 43....

I'd rather lose my gall bladder and hope it positively affects my

triglycerides than die of a heart attack.
