Hi Fred,
Since your GB ended up being like a big scar, I would bet that car accident injured it a lot.
I would LOVE to hear about your NDEs. Anything metaphysical is right up my alley. I will PM you on that since it has nothing to do with this thread.
I will post the info on another forum if you give me the URL, etc.
I will PM you the symptoms of pancreatic insufficiency. Do not read them while you are eating!
A very good web site for the truth about gallbladders and how they are not really an unnecesary organ is
www.gallbladderattack.com.
40% of people continue to have problems after surgery, esp. middle-aged females, and as my acupuncturist said, a gallbladder problem is really a liver problem. If you have an imbalance between bile and cholesterol, your liver can still produce stones, which can come down and get stuck in ducts, requiring surgery and causing symptoms. I take silymarin in my multivitamin daily now to help my liver. I am hoping the TMG will help it also, since it is used in naturopathy to treat fatty liver.
