Thank you for asking. I’m doing very well. Apparently my gallbladder was in very rough shape, so bad that it fell into the “gangrenous” category, yikes. Thankfully that’s all behind me. My GI issues are somewhat better now that my body is adjusting to no gallbladder. I’m thinking some of my pre-surgery issues could have been related to the gallbladder. I’m supposed to have an EGD this month to check the Barrett’s Esophagus and to see if the NET in my stomach has regrown. Also supposed to have an ERCT this month to check my bile ducts (related to gallbladder surgery). Guess I’m going to have to call and check on those since I haven’t heard anything. Especially since I think I’ll need a COVID test before the procedures; results here in St Louis are taking 7-10 days unless they do a rapid test at the hospital. Life is like an unending roller coaster ride! Stay healthy and safe.
