So I started having these searing attacks in my upper abdomen around Sept. 2005. It was most noticeable after a really good (read: HIGH FAT!) dinner. I remembered that once upon a time, my mother would have similar sounding attacks prior to having her gallbladder removed. And I thought, "Oh God, that can't possibly be it! I'm not NEARLY as old as Mom was when she had hers out". Ok, then I realized that my mom was 34ish when she had hers removed. And I'm 31. Amazing how time flies, isn't it? So, after a few more of these "lovely" attacks, I decide to pay a visit to my local doctor. And, lo and behold, a gallstone had taken residence in my gallbladder, necessitating removal or many more painful attacks to come. So, last Wed, I took the plunge. I am finally recovered enough to post my before and after's....I rather feel like I resemble a cafeteria lady in the before, and a female version of Andrew Dice Clay Jr. in the after. See what you think...

Love the hat!
I didn't know you were having attacks. My hubby had that several years ago, and he was MISERABLE!
We went to the ER at Evergreen more than once.
Hope you feel better soon!
When are you coming back to work?
Love, Carol U.
