They sliced me on a Tuesday crack 'o dawn. I managed to get released from hospital on Thursday afternoon. They popped the staples and drain tube Tuesday afternoon and I went to work a couple hours later. I took the pain pills through that Tuesday. Still have a little numb area on my tummy and a nice 4 inch scar. With no gall bladder you have to watch what you eat ...fatty foods, Too much and you puke
