anyone else get gallbladder out same time?

While doing my research I read that 50% of sleevers end up having their gallbladder out down the track, I think having it out at the same time is a great idea.  Having both out in one op seems more common in the US.

My experience with Dr Charles Mosse in the ACT general surgeon. Hi Aussie Nurse!  I am a 57 year old man called Barry from Cook in the ACT.  Have you selected a surgeon?  If you are already booked in and waiting I would assume you have selected someone then.  If it helps I found Dr Charles Mosse to be a remarkable surgeon.  He did my surgery in 2012.  He was efficient and talented.  I would highly recommend him.  His receptionist in Bruce at the Calvary Clinic was in my opinion harsh.  I found her to be difficult and she would overreact and made issues more difficult than they needed to be.  I was in tears after dealing with this receptionist. I know nothing of the receptionist over in Deakin ACT.  Good luck with everything mate!

I know nothing about having both done at once sorry.

its just starting to really hit home go on optifast full time next week, am getting scared wondering if im doing the right thing,
people at work no im getting a gallstone out but don't know the rest, been joking with them though saying im going to be a new person as im going to thialand for a boob job, a bum lift and tummy lyposuction

2 for 1. I had my sleeve and hernia fixed at the same time. Good of your surgeon to save you time and money :)

its all about the gallstone been giving me so much grief last couple of months but must admit since substituting food with shakes not as many nights kissing the toilet bowel so its just starting to sink in actually getting both done

Hi where are you having your op done,i had my gall bladder out after my sleeve,but I would have loved it all done all at once,all the best.

so hoping I am making the right decision but I was 60kgs in primary school and have been big my entire life, just the lack of support concerns me as most of my friends r used to me having a bottomless pit and still encouraging me to eat

Your getting a 2 for 1 op, it seems to be quiet common for sleevers to have their gallbladder out after sleeving, that will be one less anethsetic and op you will need to recover from.
All the best
