Posting from the hospital room - Sarah's gall bladder removal went fine and she's recovering well. Already off all pain and nausea meds. The doc recommended also having a stent placed in her bile duct so a GastroEnterologist will be doing that on Friday while she's still in the hospital. That doesn't involve any incisions -- they go on through the mouth/throat with a very thin endoscope.
Sarah's in good spirits but tired from the anesthesia recovery. She's hopeful that she can put the constant worrying about gall bladder attacks behind her and that's a real relief! She's lost over 10 lbs since this all started because she was avoiding so many foods for fear of an attack.
