@tennisgolf I would definitely seek out another opinion. I don't think anyone should have major surgery without a second opinion. If there is a way you can handle your gallbladder problems without surgery, you are ahead of the game.

Thank you. Agreed, I would get 2nd (and 3rd) opinions on potential surgery if I cannot continue to reduce # and intensity of "attacks".
I saw the friendly and young gastroenterologist twice. The entire extent of his advice was: "meet with a surgeon and reduce fats and fried foods". I called back for more detail on diet and steps to take..........no response. BTW, I live near NYC.
