You poor dear. I went from zero to toxic in just a few months, and that was bad enough. It was quite a conundrum. Gross stuff behind spoiler.

Spoiler:
If I breathed the wrong way, I threw up. If I sneezed, I threw up. I had horribly painful attacks but I didn't know what they were. The doctor thought I was nuts. When I was rushed to the ER, they did an ultrasound. Chock full of stones and infected.

I can't imagine living with some of those symptoms for as long as you have. You will eat pizza again. It took me about 6 months, though part of my reticence was because that was what triggered that last attack, but as long as there isn't too much greasy pepperoni on it I can handle it with no problems. After a couple of years, my liver made up most of what was lost when my gallbladder was taken out. It's an adjustment, but it's definitely an improvement over the pre-removal symptoms.

I knew someone would take the bait. There's a few in there, and there's also a few that were too short to count for the challenge, so I don't have them listed. And there's more in the TBR pile... but there's also lots of other stuff too. From high-brow to low-down, I read it all.
