Biliary disease: Gallbladder removal for a diseased gallbladder will lower your risk for serious gallstone related complications, like acute cholecystitis, gallstone pancreatitis and cholangitis. In most cases the pain is also relieved. It is a safe, effective and durable procedure. Take family with you to ask questions. Be well and good luck.

Most patients report improvement after the pain of the surgery. This should also help to differentiate your abdominal pain and cardiac, although you may have had silent ischemia. Talk to your surgeon.
