Incredible saga! Glad to hear you are on the mend and that it was caught in time. Hopes to a speedy recovery.
About 8 or 9 years ago I had gall bladder surgery. I'd been waking up sick every morning for several years. Finally I mentioned it to my Dr. who sent me for tests. Best I remember they said my gall bladder was working at something like 8%. I have chronic back pain so, I thought the sickness was just coming from the back pain. When I woke up from my surgery I was in more pain than I'd been in in my life. I'd already set up trying to get some relief from the pain before the nurses saw me and told me I couldn't do that. When they saw I was about to get up off that gurney they got busy and found me some pain meds real quick. After the surgery I was so sore I could hardly get in and out of bed for a couple weeks. I'm old and hardheaded too. Getting old is for the birds but, I guess it beats the alternative of dying young. Unless it's for my regular 3 month check up I have to be nearly dead before I'll go to a Dr. Hope you're feeling better soon.
Wow, quite the situation.
What would you have done differently? Seems,like there is a broad fuzzy area between pain, chronic pain, and an issue.
