Gall Bladder Problems

Hey there! I am suffering from gallbladder issues (I'm 90% sure it's my gallbladder..) but will find out for sure what's going on on Friday. Has anyone had problems with it before? Has anyone had it taken out? I'm a personal trainer and I heard from a friend that I won't be able to lift heavy for 4-6 weeks post-surgery, which will definitely be an issue for me. I would love to know if there is a natural way to help out the symptoms. I appreciate any type of advice! Thanks!!
