Hello @maxine50,
A laparoscopy is a non-invasive type of surgery and much easier to recover from than a more invasive surgery. Here is some information about laparoscopic procedures:

While this article is about gynecological surgery, many members of Connect have had gallbladders removed by a laparoscopic procedure including @tasha00. I hope that she connects with you and I hope this gives you some helpful information until someone who has had laparoscopic surgery responds to your question.

Thanks for the site info. I hope they don't want to remove my gall bladder only close the fistula. Now, I'm really scared. Waiting to hear from doctor so I must just relax.
