They took it out at the same time I was having surgery for a liver issue. As far as I know, the gall bladder was in fine shape but I guess they just thought it was worth taking out since they were already in the vicinity. The recovery was probably different than yours since I had about 20 inches of mercedes incision across my gut.
Good luck to you. And good luck to all the other people who have had their gall bladders removed. Who knew there were so many of us.

Damn Pat, hope all turned out well for you. That little cut had to smart just a bit.
