Guest guest Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 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. Gabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
