Re: [UK Ostomy Support ] gall stones

Ian
 
With laparascopic surgery by a bloke who knows what he's doing it should be quite straightforward but the presence of gall stones is not usually an indication for surgery - have they told you why they need to be removed? There is medical treatment that dissolves them - ask about that?
 
Best wishes

Peter
