He's back at home and fine following his gall bladder removal.
It certainly seems a popular operation at the moment. Is there anyone else out there about to have it done so we've got the set?

Strategicaly shaved, itchy, bruised, unable to cough, grumpy bear, that sort of OK.

Good News, and if you are complaining you must be OK
take things slow and steady and make a good recovery.

Glad they didn't remove your sense of humour Peter.

The puzzling thing is that we've both had the same operation but appear to have a different number of incisions in different places. Are mens' insides totally different to womens'?

Dear Chantal, i don't know about the insides, but i heard somewhere that the outsides are.

such warm and caring thoughts.
Now sans dressings on instructions of GP Nurse and well "yellow and purple are just so this year aren't they Chantal?"
As for the holes, I was unconcious at the ime (thankfully) but believe they went something like ....
Hole 1 in side, or leading edge of belly 1" to 2" higher than navel, was for a grasper and is diddy, looks more like a teenage spot with a big bruise underneath.
Hole 2 just on top of navel is about 1" to 1&1/4" long, horizontal and used for a camera and light, plus tools?
Hole 3 2" below sternumis about 1&1/2" long, horizontal and used to inflate me with CO2 to allow room to rummage.
Hole 4 was a slice in the skin on the neck sinew just above the collarbone to remove a sparrow egg sized cyst.
Again, thank you all for the kinf wishes.
