Should I Go For Gall Bladder Removal Surgery Inspite Of Having Inflammed Gall Bladder?
Because I had surgery just a week prior to my first attack, the hospital placed a small temporary drain from my inflammed gallbladder to a collective bag that I wear and planned to do surgery at a later date. Since it was my first gbladder attack and I am wondering if I have to go thru with surgery because of the drain or can somehow they pull the drain and let me keep my gallbladder.

Hello,
If you've had a inflamed gall bladder an needed to pu a drain then you should go ahead with Cholecystectomy( gall bladder removal).if you don't do so the chances of a second attack of gall bladder infection is very high and is more likely to be more complicated.
Hope this helps
