I went to visit the surgeon today. He was a nice man and I feel that he’s competent in what he does. We looked over a little comic book type thing that explained what was going wrong with me and exactly what they’d do to remove the gall bladder. He let me know that this is a very common procedure and that he’s already removed 8, count them 8, gall bladders this week.<\/p>\n
After reviewing the pros and cons of the surgery and the risks if I wait, he pressed on my abdomen and it wasn’t tender. That’s when I figured out that I really didn’t need the surgery at this time. I let him know that I’d already spoken with my chiropractor and was interested in trying a holistic approach to dissolving the gallstones rather than removing my gall bladder. His reply was polite yet a little mocking. Something along the lines of, “Okay, we’ll leave your case open and you can call us back if you need us. Good luck with the supplements. If it works, I’ll have to tell all my patients.”<\/p>\n
