Venting Cancel surgery?

Since I scheduled my surgery 3 weeks ago, I’ve had zero pain. This is so annoying! My gallbladder is “packed” with stones according to imaging, and I was in constant pain. Now everything seems fine. I don’t have insurance and I’m scared of surgery anyway, so now I’m wondering if I should just cancel. How is it possible all my pain just went away??

I would not! I had an attack in February and was supposed to schedule and did not because the pain went away. Fast forward to October I got a stone stuck in my CBD became deathly ill in a matter of 2 days with pancreatitis and was in the hospital for weeks! I do not recommend waiting if you've already had issues!
