    Just read through your entire post, going through test like that is so stress full especially when you are not feeling well. You will be feeling better soon, well wishes on your surgery and recovery.

    My mother had her gall bladder removed a couple years ago.

    It was a simple procedure...
    Two holes punctured, one for the camera and another for the surgical tools. I think she said they grind and vacuum out after they re-route the bile ducts.

    The only discomfort she had was soreness from them pumping air into her to separate the skin and other organs to allow easier access to the bad organ.

    Give the surgeon a Presta adapter to see how he reacts. hehe

    You'll be fine. Hope you have a fast recovering.

    Well, I am alive

    Surguery went off without a hitch. Much to my suprise, the worst pain is my shoulders, friggin Co2 is getting trapped in the joints. So currently I am sitting up a little, riding out the morphine they hit me with on the way out, and finally truly starting to wake up. Already been for a walk to work out the trapped Co2, thinking I will go again in about a half an hour. Strangly enough, I have an appetite now, even the Doctor was suprised on that
    Three small holes in the abdomen, one gallbladder no longer there.
    Well here is too a month off the bike, at least a week off work, and to getting in some fishing in the mean time.:beer:

    If you want, I can take your bike out for some exercise at Sycamore Canyon...you know, just to keep the pivots moving and to make sure all the bearings don't seize up.....:lol:
