Comments (4)There are more and more men and women nowadays who suffer from the gallbladder disease. It commonly appears in old men and women and the dangers of gall bladder illness are greater at people today over 50 yrs old. Even though this disease has effects on adult men and females it can be most prevalent in ladies. The estrogen will be the major cause of that. More youthful people and youngsters can be afflicted with this disease too, however it just isn't so prevalent in them and in case it takes place then it's not serious. Obese people, people with gastro-intestinal complications and people today experiencing with higher blood cholesterol levels are more afflicted with this disease.. Gallstones are most frequently the primary cause of this disease.. They're normally created because of too much cholesterol levels inside the bile or if the gallbladder does not unload completely. The gall stones normally trigger clog of the bile and for that reason the normal functions of the gall bladder may take a hit. When the symptoms of gallbladder illness are minor then they are able to be quickly addressed with some medications and distinct diet program. However, it the gallbladder causes severe complications then it's recommended to eliminate it operatively. There are two sorts of gallbladder illness: chronic and acute. The chronic sort isn't so extreme and its particular difficulties are bearable. Nevertheless the acute type of gall bladder disease pretty much usually calls for surgical procedure. Fortunately, the gallbladder isn't a important organ plus the human body can continue doing the job with out complications if it can be removed. On the other hand, therefore the liver organ actually starts to produce much more bile to make the distinction. As soon as the gall bladder is taken away from your body it can cause problems considering the food intake but luckily it is often resolved with lowering the food parts and eating low-fat foodstuff. In this manner your body will very easily rise above the absence of the gallbladder. Considering the gall bladder surgical procedures you will discover 2 kinds: open medical procedures and laparoscopic medical procedures. Laparoscopic surgical procedure possibly the very best option since it carries lower risks along with the scar following the medical procedures is smaller. This surgical procedures is completed with a medical tool known as a laparoscope. The actual laparoscope is in a form of a hose with a little high-end camera on it. Its shape does not require major cut and due to that the time to recover is greatly decreased. You can treat this disease effectively in quite a few different methods but ensure to consult your doctor in case you have any complications together with your gallbladder.. In case you disregard the symptoms of gall bladder disease you might be prone to further health difficulties.

I said use to.Said it was bad to drink those. I onl drink watr and unsweet tea once in awhile a sprite. Well thatsurgery was 2 yrs ago. I felt really great until a few months ago when I would bloat up again like before, certain foods would make me throw up and it wasn't the same foods that would do it. Sa I would eat Pizza get sick , eat it again wouldn't bother me. One thingI noticed was this pain under my right rib like a baby kicking my rib. Best way to discribe it.Went to dr , he did a scope and a scan. Said nothin is wrong. Well the pain is getting worse constant movement. I can't get confortable at night. I eat small amounts of food, sill bloat, constapated. Just down right misserable.Dr put me on Amitiza 25mg and I feel worse than before. Can't keep food down and can't stay off he pot. So I stopped taking it. Looking fr a different dr that can help me.Does anyone else have this feeling? I had a hyserecomy so I know i'm not pregnant...See MoreGallbladder Attack
Comments (28)Some of the worst pain in my life was from gallstones getting stuck in the ducts. OMG pain. I was happy to get it removed, but unfortunately I am one of the people that develop bile dumping syndrome which in reality is in some cases even worse than the gallbladder pain. It means where ever I am I must be just steps from a restroom because after eating just minutes later I am struck with horrible stomach pains and intense and immediate diarrhea. It does not matter what I eat. It is very embarrassing . I try to warn anyone that has the surgery to be aware if you start to have the symptoms of severe pain, cramps, and intense diarrhea, be sure to talk to your doctor about bile dumping syndrome. You can take some medication for the cramps and there is a powder you can drink to help with the symptoms. It works ok for some people not so much for others. I had my surgery many many years ago and still suffer from bile dumping syndrome. I know where every restroom is in every store or restaurant because it can be essential information! Colestyramine is the powder you mix with water or orange juice. I prefer OJ. colestyramine http://gallbladderattack.com/gallbladder-surgery/...See MoreDiet after surgery; soft food for 4 weeks
Comments (55)I've been with the same company since 1989, and so we are very familiar with each other by now, but it was not like that in the beginning. When I first met my boss, I felt an instant rapport with her and felt like we were meant to be together. When I looked at her furniture, I thought to myself, "These are the exact same proportions I would use," and so I knew from the beginning that we had a compatible design style/sense. It took her a little longer than it did me to realize this, but once she did, she trusted me with all new designs. Kevin has some good friends at work, and a couple of the them live not too far from us. One has offered to help cook and help with grocery shopping, if necessary, but I think I am recovered enough by now to handle shopping. I just cannot get anything heavy yet, but that will come in due time. As for the garden, I will hire help probably in October. It would nice to have him sooner, but he is my friend in Sacramento, and I have to work with his schedule. I don't trust the local landscapers here. I could possibly find a good landscape architect here, but that would be expensive and more than we need right now, although I'll keep it in mind for the future. It depends on what we end up doing in Palm Springs. I think Kevin will be much happier when we can buy a second home in the Palm Springs area. We'll probably end up in Cathedral City (Palm Springs adjacent but not walking distance), and hopefully Cathedral Gulch. This won't start happening until next year, but it's something to look forward do that I think might help Kevin feel better. What is odd is that so many people ask us if we are twins, but I am 15 years (+3 weeks) older, and I think this must be very insulting to Kevin. First people ask us if we are brothers. Then they ask if we are twins. Then they ask which one is older, which is the worst question of all. I've afraid that Kevin is going to appear even older after this ordeal, but if he can have a week-end house in PS, then I think he won't mind so much. I don't know yet how I will look after my full recovery, but I am keeping plastic surgery as an option. I've had hospital technicians tell me that if you live in Los Angeles, then it is almost mandatory. When I had a bike accident that cut my forehead, they would not release me from St. Johns until I interviewed with a plastic surgeon. Back then (around 1996) I did not care about having a small scar or two on my forehead, and now it's barely visible anyway. If anything, what I can see of it makes me look more rugged, I think. I wear bike helmets now. Sorry for rambling - I'm having trouble sleeping some nights, and after just having seen Kevin, I am feeling even more anxious. I think I will be able to help him with most of what he needs, but he is very private and introverted and often likes to be by himself. I hope he will spend his alone time in the back yard instead of his bedroom, but for now, I know it is painful for him to sit in a chair, and I expect that to last for a while. I could see the evidence of the surgery that had been done, having to remove part (or all) of his sphincter, which I mentioned before but had not seen evidence of before. He's going to be on disability for about three months, I think, but since he has been paying disability insurance for many years, he will get paid pretty much his normal salary - from the insurance. However, they deduct Californian disability payments, as California is fairly generous with these payments, and so Kevin will have to apply for those as well - since the payments will be deducted whether he receives them or not. He cannot file for California disability until he gets out of the hospital, but I think he knows how to do this....See Moremorz8 - Washington Coast
