I had my gallbladder removed last November. I had the conversion and referral from the consultant on June prior to that. So it took me 5 months waiting. Although getting/waiting an appointment to the consultant took around the same time as well. But we live in North Wales. It might be different in your location.

My Father had his removed last year too, but he is 80 and had an infection. He was done the next day almost, so probably depends on your local waiting list or how urgent. All done through keyhole, so not as invasive or traumatic, although my Dad didn't go fishing or shooting for a week or so after.
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
Just ask your consultant and GP about how long is the usual waiting time for a gallbladder operation. I asked my GP and he told me that if it's not really urgent, it would usually take 6 months waiting time.

Good luck Tiger. Obviously if you have money you will get seen a lot quicker.
Oh dear, sorry to hear that I do hope that you are not in too much pain, Tiger. Looks like you AND the house will be having an overhaul !
Fingers crossed that you won't have to wait too long, in the meantime, take good care of yourself
