Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Thanks for sharing. I'm happy you made what u felt was the right decision for u. Your journey has only just begun however. Gallstones is just a symptom of something wrong in the liver. Take care of yourself and watch your diet. All the best to you and baby. -----Original Message----- From: tracic@... tracic@...

My DR in the ER is a leader in Calvin's boy scout troop, Dr Hamilton. He has 12 children of his own. He took excellent care of me through my 4 hour attack, it was major major pain. That was Wednesday. I was majorly dehydrated and my liver was failing - the enzymes were extremely high. So I had to stay the night with lots of IV fluids, and had surgery yesterday. My OB said it was certain that I would miscarry if I didn't have the surgery, he felt the risk of losing the baby through surgery was far less than losing the baby through all the stress he/she was under at that point. I was so thankful to finally be getting help for all that pain. I am so thankful to have my gb out, no regrets. I am 12 weeks today, I got my ultrasound in the hospital. The surgeon went through my belly button with a camera so I'm in a lot of pain where the muscles were tore through and sewn back up. I just got home from the hospital, I was there for 2 days. It was wonderful to be able to eat in the hospital, I was a little anxious at first fearing I'd have a gallbladder attack after I ate some crackers. I'm telling you, I Really enjoyed dinner and breakfast at the hospital. It was the best full meal (and pain free) I've had in quite a while. It's still hard to believe I'm gb attack free. I am SO happy, all of this pain is worth it to know I am doing better and so is the baby. My liver is much better now. I feel like I've been in a car wreck, surgery was really scary. I knew the Lord orchestrated the whole thing, He held my hand through it all. I felt at such peace before surgery - I knew this was meant to be. I prayed for a really long time before surgery and I just knew this was His plan for me. I had such a sense of peace about the whole ordeal. As for people thinking I should keep my gb, well that was just not God's plan for me. The DR's were wonderful, and I was so happy to see Dr Hamilton's face in the ER - I knew he would take excellent care of me and most importantly this baby. I had never had surgery before so it was still a bit scary, all that blue - it was just like TV. :-) OK sorry all this is so jumbled up. I'm in a lot of pain right now, and it's hard to get all this down to where it makes sense. I've got to go rest. Traci Psalm 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. 4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. 5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. Proverbs 3: 5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Happy moments, PRAISE GOD. Difficult moments, SEEK GOD. Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD Painful moments, TRUST GOD. Every moment, THANK GOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 I definitely made the right decision. Gallstones run in my family, my grandmother had hers out about 35 years ago and some of my aunts had theirs out about 20 years ago. They have never had any problems. I know a lot of people do have problems, but I will be taking really good care of myself with a wonderful diet, healthy fats and just really healthy foods. I pray I will follow in the footsteps of my family members with no more problems from this. I don't believe there was anything wrong in my liver before the gallstones, I believe the 5 pregnancies and the extreme no fat diets I did when I was younger prior to pregnancy caused the stones. The gallbladder was killing me, that's how I felt, I was jaundiced, my liver was failing (it's now perfect) I could eat nothing, I was majorly dehydrated and under so much stress from the pain. The baby was completely stressed, I feel I made the right decision for this child inside of me. Actually I believe God orchestrated every bit of it. I wanted to keep my gb that's what I've been trying to do for the last 2 years, it just didn't work out the way I thought was right.
