Hello, MShakee,
If you have been diagnosed to have gallstones, especially ,mutiple,
then removal of
gallbladder is the definitive treatment as a cure.
You can live without a gallbladder which is essentially a storage
organ. Bile is produced in the liver and carried to the gallbladder.
It releases the bile periodically after meals to help with digestion.
Even after the gallbladder is removed, bile now comes into the
intestine directly and helps with digestion. In some people,
there could be
diarrhea from bile irritation on the lining of the
intestine, but his is temporary and gets better with time.
As for recuperation, it is faster since the surgery is done through
a laparoscope and it is same day in and out surgery.
As for as
fatty liver is concerned, it depends on the grades.
Grade 0-1 or even Grade-2 , is completely reversible with proper
diet, weight control, sugar control and lipid control. You should
consider taking Super B-Complex Vitamin daily, along with 1000 mg.
of Vit-C and 800 i.u. of Vit-E daily. These will help. If you have not
had complete liver tests, get it to see how the enzyme levels are.
If they are normal, you don't have to worry.
I wish you well.
