Re: PET/CT Scan on Friday, checking for Mets ...

Well, I finally followed up with my primary doc last week and he sent me for an ultrasound which I had last Friday. I am meeting with a surgeon on the 8th of November for a surgical consult to have my gallbladder removed. Turns out I have a stone or stones in there so that's next on my agenda. Otherwise, "livin and lovin life! : ) HOpe all is well with everyone else!

Does anyone know what the recuperation time for someone with a desk job to be off for this type of surgery? I guess I'll find out on the 8th Thanks!
