I had my gall bladder removed the "new way" Wednesday evening and when discharged Thursday, I received no post-op instructions at all and have not been able to reach the surgeon. As far as driving, showering, sex and diet are concerned what is a good rule of thumb? Also, I had a trip planned for this coming Tuesday for my Grandmother's 88th birthday. It is a two hour flight and a two hour drive from the airport to my hometown. Would it be advisable to go ahead and make the trip?
