Re: gall stones and revision?

[Guest guest]

Hi -

I had a full body scan some years back that showed I had quite a few

gall stones. They've never caused me any discomfort or problems, and

I've since had 2 revision surgery procedures (5 years apart) with

absolutely no problems from having them whatsoever - either during or

after surgery.

Good luck!
