Jesika & Renee, I hope all goes well with your surgeries. They normally do laparoscopic unless there are issues or complications. So, you will both more than likely have your gallbladder removed laparoscopically. I had mine removed that way back in 2008 and it was no problem at all. Definitely a quicker recovery than the old-fashioned way!! I agree that you will feel so much better after that gallbladder is gone, I know I did!!!
Wishing you both the best!!
