See your surgeon: Methotrexate and Humera are drugs used to treat rheumatoid arthritis - both can lower immunity. While most laparoscopic cholecystectomies go without complications, given your suppressed state, it makes sense to go to your surgeon to have blood work and possibly an ultrasound performed.
