| 19) What about my gallbladder? |
| A. We take out patient's gallbladder only when at the time of surgery, the gallbladder contains stones since the risk of gallbladder removal is lower that the chance of developing significant symptoms from gallstones. For people who have gallstones and no symptoms, it has been shown that there is a one percent per year risk of developing problems related to the gallstones. After significant weight loss, patients who did not have pre-operative gallstones have a 30 percent chance of developing stones. If you take Actigall (bile salts) for six months, your risk for gallstones is only three percent. |
