Hi~
I was just going to start a new thread asking if anyone on Atkins has had their gallbladder out...I had mine removed 3 months ago. Although I'm not having problems like you are- I am starting to worry that this WOE is not for someone w/out a gallbladder. I happened to mention the Atkins WOE to my surgeon and he nearly went through the roof! He claims that w/out your gb you have to really limit your fat intake. I told him that my all around general health was BETTER since I began Atkins- of course he does not agree with it.
I'm curious to know if weight lose slows down since a body w/out a gallbladder can't break down what it needs to- or is it ok to keep doing as I am?
About the rash: I don't know of any reason why Desitin would increase the problem. I imagine it's instant releif! You poor thing...I hope you feel better soon.
