Well theres a possibility of me having to have my gallbladder out due to gallstones. First my tonsils then my appendix now my gallbladder. I might have to lose all my hair and have my teeth removed yet, there will be nothing left in a few years at this rate.

Just thought I'd share and wonder what parts have you had removed?

This could get interesting.

I've had nothing removed so far, touch wood.

I've had my gallbladder out. Despite being keyhole surgery and a day patient procedure, it was bloody painful to recover from. And I was in the hospital longer than a day ! At least I don't get the fiery burning feeling of gallstones waking me up at all hours the night anymore :p
 
I think once those removed (like the OP), and with well trimmed hair & nails, you can be called a Human Superleggera.
 
One testicle. :( Had a torsion of the teste when I was younger and was too embarrassed to tell anyone about it. Cue a few days passing before it got unbearable and we go to the hospital. I left it too long and it had gave up.
 
I've had my gallbladder removed as well. Thankfully my experience was better than Tauren's - for sure it hurts quite a lot when you cough or lie down/get up for about a week after the op, but compared to the pain of a bout of biliary colic it's nothing. I was signed off work for two weeks, went back after one week.
 
I had my appendix removed also, which wasn't much fun when I got an infection as a result.

To make up for it though I had a plate put in my wrist, so I've probably gained a little.
 
my gallbladder removal/recovery was brilliant. i had a sore belly button for a week and that was just uncomfortable rather than painful. i got off very lightly compared to other stories i've heard.
