My hubby had his gallbladder out laproscopically a couple of years ago. Outpatient surgery. I think it was something like four hours from leaving the house to returning after surgery. Recovery was pretty easy and he hasn't even found any serious trouble foods afterwards, though evidently most folks who have their gallbladders out have things they can't eat afterwards, or can only eat in serious moderation.
But if your night was anything like the night he had when they said "yup, that needs to come out", ouch! That was a pretty awful night.
He lucked out and the surgeon his GP recommended had an opening less than a week later. It was like two weeks from horrible night to gallbladder out and healed and feeling fine.
