There are some very “smart” people on this board so… I’m hoping someone
can help me even if it isn’t a gb question.

was a […]

Can anyone who have had this surgery please enlighten me on how your
experience went. Was recovery painful or no? How long did you stay

I also recently found out I had Surgical clips in me. Surgeon never mentioned
it. I had an xray for a back problem, and they told me. Good to know. If you are

Kelly,
They didn’t tell me that they leave surgical clips in. I’ve never heard of

Hi Ladies…I’m checking in quickly while at work, so I only have a
minute. I think you all had your gb’s out (right?). I did too last
year and I also have the diarreah problem. I don’t know what to

when the body eliminates. Does anyone […]
