I'm so pleased for your good news on no mets Greenacres, I agree the pain from gall or kidney stones is the worst and I had my gall bladder removed a year before my dx. I did feel quite a lot of pain after the op, especially trying to sit up and overall it took me a fortnight to feel well enough to return to work. My hubby had kidney stones which are agonizing too and they were able to blast them with a lazer type treatment, good luck and its possible my experience was unique and yours could be far easier!
