I am now gall bladder free!
Went to hospital with extreme stomach pains early Tuesday morning and they took out my gall bladder yesterday. Now at home.
They advised me not to do any heavy lifting or soaking in water for a least 2 weeks so that means no treasure hunting for me (which, for me, is all about standing in chest deep water and heavy lifting of sand from the lake bed).
I really wanted to go camping and hunt some lake areas here in Ontario and had even had rented a car for a week starting yesterday for the adventure. Oh well.
Props to the St. Michael's hospital crew in Toronto for being so nice and efficient and getting me in and out so quickly. Better have this done now in Canada than have an attack in South Africa or Mauritius in 2017.
Gall bladders: who need 'em anyway.
