Hi Lis,
I had a lap and excision of Endo in March where Dr. Redwine found I had
Endo on my appendix also. I'm sure that you can have Endo on the
gallbladder too, but a doctor has to know what he's looking at to know
it needs taken care of at the time of surgery. Sorry you are in so much
pain. My thoughts are with you! Good luck.
