Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I have not seen enough patients that had a gallbladder removed in order make a generalization. I currently treating a woman that had her gallbladder removed. One interesting aspect which I tend to correlate with her removed gallbladder is her lack of initiative and ability to make decisions . She is unhappy with her life and does not find the resources to make life-changing decisions. Then again she also suffers from liver-blood xu , so this could also be a factor.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hi all, An interesting note on organs and emotions: early on in my practice I met a patient's father who, due to an injury, had had his spleen removed. As a person he had always been calm and organised, but after the splenectomy he became slightly messy, and developed a very mild, low-key worry-warting.
