I had mine out after a severe attack at around age 40. I've never noticed it missing after the initial recovery, which was fairly short.

@lisalucier Hi Lisa, I have been on a no or very low-fat diet for 2 weeks now. I thought it will help until my surgery. I have had some episodes loose stools and trying to keep fiber intake up.
I understand that you need to stay on that diet after surgery for a bit for the liver to adjust.
I am curious how long for your diet to go back to normal and your intake of fat.
