Life Without Gallbladder Tag: Lap Chole – compose of posts pertaining to lap chole (laparoscopic cholecystectomy), a surgical removal of the gallbladder.
Last year, I made a test – Eating cheese and dairy products. That was few months after my lap chole (Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy) operation. Even without gallbladder, I ate a home-made burger with cheese, butter and mayonnaise and to test how my system would react to dairy products. And the outcome of the test – upset stomach, gas was formed and grumbled inside my stomach. Although it was not a system overload, but it was a warning.
It’s been a year now of living life with no gallbladder.
Right after the Lap Chole (Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy) operation, I thought I would become a vegetarian. But the hospital served chicken – on a low fat diet. So, meat was still part of my diet. Then, we bought a microwave oven for cooking my food. And even thought of buying a steam cooker.
Yet, after doing some tests on eating the foods to be avoided, I managed to eat some fatty foods. And even end up eating the foods that I regularly eat.
I had my first glass of San Miguel Beer Pale Pilsen!
7 months after my Lap Chole (Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy) operation, I found myself holding an icy San Miguel beer. Not just holding the glass but drinking the beer.
First reaction – I almost forgot the taste of cold San Miguel Beer. I waited some minutes for my system to react to the beer. And since it was a round-robin shots, I had ample time to feel how my stomach would react. But I only had the normal system reaction – burping. Then I had some more shots and I feel no stomach pain, no adverse reaction.
