Awww Becky,
That doesn't sound very nice at all.
Hopefully, your results will come through quickly and they will be removed asap.

No wonder you have been in so much pain!!  My friend has just had her gall bladder out via key hole surgery and she was back working as a hair dresser after a week.  It's a much better op now it is done key hole.  It can be so painful though not surprised you haven't been well.  Gall stones can be much worse if you are pregnant as well so it's almost like your body new hopefully once this is cleared up you will be able to get back to full health and start trying again.  xx

Awww hunny my mum's had this.... you've done so well to get this far with that many rattling around inside!

Can't remember how long my mum took to bounce back but she was older than you so she had that against her.

Hope all moves quickly for you now hunny and then you can get back to normal xx

I suffered with gallstones whilst I was pregnant with Aimee, and believe me I know how you feel.  The only advice I can give you is eat as close to a fat free diet as possible, dont eat late at night and dont have any big meals, just eat little and often.

I had the keyhole surgery 5 months after giving birth, by that time I'd had them for 2 years.  The 2 days after surgery were pretty sore but I had mine done on the Monday and the following Saturday I was out clubbing and back to my normal self.  I hope yours gets treated soon hun, I know exactly what you're going though.

P.S...They let me keep my stones and they look like lil moons with craters and everything hehe.

Glad they've found out what the problem has been then, Becky. Hope they get them removed soon for you.

I've got them too - but (touch wood) I don't get a lot of bother with them so far.  They found them  when I had an ultrasound when they were investigating my IBS a few years ago.
