what procedure?

have this abdominal pain on and off since about a year ago. treated the symptoms, ignored the etiology. at last, i had the chance to ask my pcp about it, then confirmed by ultrasound of my belly, i needed a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. a procedure i am familiar with, encountered all the time at work. but the main difference this time is, i will be the one having the procedure. that is the main difference. no biggie, just needed to be done.
