A member asked:
How long does it take your body to get back to normal after having your gallbladder out and do you have to eat low fat foods after the operation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1 week: Typically 5-7 days to return to work full time. Could be as little as 2-3 days. Most could also go back to working out in a gym in 2-3 weeks depending on comfort level. Low fat diets are typically not necessary unless freq loose stools are an issue.
