It's been quite a couple of months for me as I've had two laparoscopic surgeries in the past 7 weeks. The first, simply put, for some adhesions as a result of a surgery 3 years ago. The most recent to have my gallbladder removed.
The gallbladder really did need to come out as I had been having attacks since last May. Painful and not fun! Some of the attacks were pretty scary. Since my diagnosis in July (procrastination on going to the doctor) I have been on a low fat type of diet. Reluctantly I will say. The gallbladder reacts to much more that just fat so there were so many foods off limits unless I wanted to test my pain tolerance. Great for losing weight. I have clothes to wear that I couldn't wear for a long time. Not really a bad thing, just frustrating. How fortunate I have been for so many years to eat all the junk I indulged in :)
It's only been 9 days since the surgery. I have been taking great pleasure in tasting foods that I haven't had since July. Pizza is okay. Coffee is okay. Eggs are okay. Dairy products are okay. MEXICAN FOOD IS NOT! Darn... We went to Don Jose's last night and the end result was not pleasant. I'll have to wait a while longer and give it another go.
