How important are Gallbladders anyway?

Well it seems that after staying up all night in the ER I have gallbladder problems...and what is it with Doctors. In one breath they are telling you that you have gallbladder problems...so as I am adjusting to this they spring on you that you need surgery. Excuse me? Huh? This is the second time this has happened...the other was with my daughter...the Doctor was scheduling the surgery before I had even contemplated that she needed surgery!

So I am starting to educate myself on gallbladders....very interesting...who could have thought little stones would be SOO painful! So I got pain meds, anti-nausea, and an antibiotic...because it seems I also have a Urinary Tract Infection (who knew?).
