Where to buy with gallbladder removal?

Just that really. I’m restarting MJ but the medical questionnaires on all of the websites I’ve tried so far won’t let you if you tick that you’ve had surgery on your gallbladder.

There’s likely a good reason for that restriction, whilst the increased risk of developing gallstones whilst taking MJ is irrelevant in your case, there may be other issues due to having your gallbladder removed. Speak to a HCP first

Hmm it wasn’t an issue when I ordered last time in July. My endo gave me the go ahead to restart. You can still develop gallstones even with a removal, but it’s never been a problem before and surely lots of people with no gallbladder take WLI?

I’ve had pens from Pharmacy express, medicine marketplace, and independent pharmacy- told all them I’d had mine removed.

Asda, Cloud, and SwiftDr.

Oushk, Lloyds and Pharmulous will prescribe. Had my gallbladder removed over 10 years ago.

Asda, medexpress and boots all prescribed to me with no gallbladder

Juniper

I'd think about trying anywhere Doctor-led, so SwiftDoctor springs to mind but there must be others. Also don't forget to look locally. You'll likely have a Dr led service in your nearest town/city.

I've been on MJ since may and change providers most months to get best cost. Had no issues getting it with no gallbladder. Had from med express, juniper, and I've gone blank with who else.

I completed the form with Ashcroft Pharmacy and documented my gallbladder removal in 2015. They just advised to drink enough water and if I experienced any side effects to seek medical advice immediately

TokenGinger · 29/09/2025 16:16

I haven’t had mine removed, but have had gallstone problems in the past and I got mine from Oushk.
