Gallbladders and Bile

Bile is produced in the liver, stored and concentrated in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine. Bile emulsifies the lipids in fatty food and makes it easier to digest. Unfortunately, the gallbladder can develop gallstones which can be tiny grains or as big as golf balls. Some cause no trouble but others may become life threatening.

The little lazer eye inside needs cleaned. I use a 70% Isoprophyl brand rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab. This only works for the new slimline PS2's, though. I have cleaned a lot of the old style PS2's, but they are rather difficult to assemble and disassemble.

It is done by general anaesthetic. You have either key hole surgery which you recover from in two weeks or if there are complications during surgery the doctors may have to revert to open surgery which takes a lot longer to recover from.

So I advise anyone with stabbing chest pain that occurs after eating a lot of fatty food or alcohol to get it checked out. As its much easier to have key hole surgery.
