A member asked:
Many docs say gallbalder isn't essential.how body adjusts to new condition after chole/tomy and not have dyspepsia for rest of the life?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not essential but...: Gallbladders are useful and many have chronic digestive issues after removal. A prescription drug, Ursodiol, can help dissolve but even more effective is Golden Coin Grass, a Chinese herb, and Chanca Piedra from the Amazonian rainforest.
