This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I had mine out in 1998 on a thursday, spent one night in hospital. I decided I was going out dancing on Saturday night. I made it about 3 of the 12 miles to the club I was heading and I was sore just driving in a 96 dodge 1500 on the streets. I turned around. Next weekend, I was out there tho.

    Give it a couple days, you do not want to be racing this weekend, save it for next weekend. You may not even want to be passenger on a drive to the track this weekend.

    Take it easy this weekend, back to 100% by next weekend.

    Watch out if you eat a greasy or fat meal. Prime rib, fries, pretty much any fast food, even a cheesey italian meal can give you the "I gotta get to a bathroom NOW" feeling. That improves over time as your body adjusts, but you will always have a reaction to the intake of fat.

    All being said, that gall bladder pain is intense, you will be glad it is out now.

    Dan I just had mine out about 2 months ago. Incision still healing from drain tube. But all in all was doing fine in a week. Biggest thing you want to do is get off the pain meds. Just watch out for the gas.
