Delulu and taking it one day at a time over here

Surviving is what I do. #gallbladderremoved Well here I am 36 years old crying my eyes out every day because I had to get surgery! Thankful to still be here and recovering quickly!

No stones. Just pain, nausea , couldn’t eat and keep anything down. Glad to be healing and in less pain on day 3 of recovery & praying for no scars on the four incisions for the robot hands. #gallbladderremoved

... Read moreHaving recently undergone gallbladder removal myself, I can deeply relate to the mixture of emotions and physical challenges that come with this surgery. Many people think it's a quick fix, but the reality involves significant recovery time, especially when you experience symptoms like pain and nausea beforehand. My surgery involved robotic-assisted laparoscopic methods, similar to the four small incisions described here, which generally lead to quicker healing and less scarring compared to traditional open surgery. In the days following surgery, managing discomfort is crucial. I found that staying hydrated and eating small, bland meals helped reduce nausea. Pain management was also important; following the prescribed medication schedule prevented unnecessary suffering. Another key aspect of recovery is mental health — it's normal to feel emotional and even cry; acknowledging these feelings helped me take each day at a time. For those dealing with concurrent conditions such as an umbilical hernia, combined recovery may involve additional care, so always consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance. Finally, patience and positive mindset play a significant role in healing. Joining support groups or online forums with others who have had gallbladder removal can provide encouragement and shared tips for a pain-free living experience post-surgery.
