We don't remove the gallbladder unless you already have gallstones that are causing symptoms. Weight loss is slow and natural, so the risk of gallstones is not sufficiently elevated as to make gallbladder removal worth doing.

Frequently Asked Questions about Gallbladder Cancer
The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ found under the liver in the upper-right abdomen. The gallbladder stores bile, a fluid made by the liver. Bile helps digest the fat in the food you eat. Bile is released from the gallbladder through a tube called the bile duct. This tube connects the gallbladder and liver to the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine.

But if my stress test is normal, then I don't have to worry about having a heart attack, do I?

Frequently Asked Cardiac Questions - Dr Barry J Bellovin MD ...
Even a stress test isn't 100% definitive. Certainly someone with a normal stress test is at lower risk than someone with an abnormal one. But plaque in an artery can sometimes go from an undetectable 20% blockage to a critical 99% blockage overnight, much like a volcano erupting. Unfortunately, this sort of situation is almost impossible to predict or prevent. Controlling blood pressure and cholesterol and taking aspirin can help, however. Yes and no.

Why does a person having a heart attack need an AED?

AED - Frequently Asked Questions
When a heart attack becomes a full cardiac arrest, the heart most often goes into uncoordinated electric activity called fibrillation. The heart twitches ineffectively and cannot pump blood. The AED delivers electric current to the heart muscle, momentarily stunning the heart, stopping all activity. This gives the heart an opportunity to resume beating effectively.

How much alcohol should I drink in order to reduce my risk of having a heart attack?

British Heart Foundation - Doubt Kills - FAQ
None. There is no evidence that non drinkers of alcohol should start drinking alcohol in order to reduce their risk of developing coronary heart disease or having a heart attack. However, if you do drink already, then drinking in moderate amounts can help to reduce your risk of developing coronary heart disease and of having a heart attack. A man should have no more than 3-4 units a day and a woman no more that 2-3 units a day.
