#tw: gallbladder

The most insane thing I encounter on the reg is people joining the gallbladder subreddit I'm a part of and asking for advice on how to keep their gallbladder because they are entirely certain they can fix it and their gallbladder will heal if they only eat right and exercise. It's not even for $$$ reasons that they're avoiding it, they're avoiding it because They Know They Can Fix It.
I've got bad news about what organs can and cannot regenerate/fix themselves in your body chief

Hey! This is Zoro coming with an update about my health as quite a few things have happened the past couple of months. As some may know, I've been dealing with chronic pain and illness since February of last year as mentioned in this post here.
A quick summary of it was that I have been dealing with constant bladder and stomach problems suddenly that were disrupting day to day life as they were painful and constant. Despite the multiple hospital visits, nothing was really done and at the time I could only wait to see certain specialists (which required a lot of money to see). Recently however, I finally got an answer to what was causing me pain in one part of my stomach! The culprit was my gallbladder and it has been removed!
The rest of the post will be caught off so for those who want to read in more detail, but one issue has been solved (at least i hope so)!
I also want to note here and thank everyone who's been supportive of me during this rough patch in my life. I also want to thank those who sent money for the GoFundMe! However, due to a few circumstances which will also be explained in the read more section, I will be refunding it all to those who donated.
TLDR version of my reason is that I was advise to do so for the eligibility medical/financial benefits I've been looking into. The refunds should be sent in about a week, so keep and eye out!
TW for Medical related subjects such as surgery.
For what was causing me pain in my stomach, or at least one of the reasons:
Turns out I had gallstones that somehow CT scans and ultrasounds didn't pick up last year, despite the pain and discomfort I was in from them. It got to the point where the pain was so unbearable, I was crying for about 2-3 hours before going to the ER. They found one stone had thicken walls through the ultrasounds and my gallbladder was infected from these stones.
Because of the findings, I underwent surgery to completely remove it during my stay in the hospital. I am now close to two weeks post-op and so far it has relieved most, if not all, of the constant pain I've been in my upper right. While I still have issues elsewhere in my body, it feels nice to have one issue solved. I just hope I don't need another trip to the ER anytime soon.
As for the detailed explanation for refunding the GoFundMe donations:
A few months back I after the go found me, I was accepted in a financial assistance program that made doctor's visits way cheaper. From close to hundreds of dollars to 3 dollars, that was way more an affordable price range for me. Despite that, i kept the donations on hold just in cause anything changed or something wasn't covered by the program until now.
Along with that, I've been applying for disability as I am considered disabled by my psychiatrist due to my mental health. After talking to a few folks who knew about the system, they mentioned that the money from the fundraiser could harm the process in gaining these benefits. Their recommended course of action was to refund the money as a precaution, so I'm following their advice. After the refunds have gone through, I will be closing the fundraiser.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Again, I want to give a massive thank you everyone in general who have supported me through all this. Its been difficult, especially since I had to accommodate to the pain and changes in my body. There has been MANY ups and for sure downs, but I'm still holding on!
Thank you for reading on this update, and expect to see me slowly become active again on here! I'm still in my Zonai phase so expect more content revolving around that, along with possible Zora content. Original works not involving fandoms will also (hopefully) be posted too!
Im also thinking of opening commissions in the future! I'll need to ask about that first due to what I mentioned above, but as far as I'm aware, I should be okay to do so (but don't quote me on it). So keep an eye out!

i might be either going to the hospital and staying there until my surgery next week, or getting surgery early. i’ve been having a hard time keeping food down and it’s gotten to the point where even when i’m NOT eating, i’m still nauseous/throwing up. i really thought id be fine waiting 2 weeks for surgery but im not real sure i am. my mom is planning on calling the nurse today to see if she thinks i should come in (i was up early and want to try to go back to sleep, plus i hate phone calls :3)
i guess i’ll post again later when there’s more of an update

Hii, I just wanted to say I'm glad you had a restful break, I've been in bed for the past few days recovering from gallbladder removal surgery, so I've been endlessly scrolling for a while lol, but I'm happy to see you on my dash again, I hope you're doing well <3 <3 ~R
>AAAAAAAAHHHHH PRECIOUS LITTLE R~~ 🥺💖💖💖 Tysm!! I hope you’ve been experiencing a speedy recovery from your surgery and that endlessly scrolling my blog has helped to lift your bed-ridden spirits (or at least helped to pass the time while you’re there) 🤗🤗🤗📚
>Whatever you do, don’t think about your yan(s) of choice doting on you (and insisting you stay in bed much longer than you think you need, maybe with the help of a few off-label prescriptions… 🛌💊💞)
>Important question: Did you get to keep the gallbladder (/top-tier darling shrine addition) tho?? 🤔🫙🏆✨

if i have less activity lately it's because im currently going through medical issues right now and it's getting awful. it's like 7/10--it hurts bad, really bad, i wanna scream a lot, and it inhibits me from doing stuff but i can still maybe try to write things??? but it's difficult to do things with my arms ;; but all i can do is distract myself and just hope it goes away... then again im only this active since im waiting for things to get in order but in the meantime imma screm ! we have no money but my pup cup (boyfriend) is willing to take me to an urgent care later when he gets back home so we'll see how that pans out

I'm now so fat that my gallbladder is giving me issues. Any recommendations to help the ' morning sickness ' stop? I feel so bloated when I wake up, which is hot, except my tummy burns and I end up throwing up 😥 not fun...

I'm pretty sure I can never let myself have any kind of surgery that isn't absolutely necessary ever again and it really kind of sucks
