Have you ever heard of anyone having a lap gallbladder surgery and having a dozen or more surgical clips in them from surgery?

It is entirely possible.
Depending on how many incision sites and probes they used during surgery would depend on the amount of clips/stitches required.
Just for example: 5 entry points, depending on the size may equal 2,3 clips per site.
3 x 5 = 15 clips.

Has anyone had trouble with their gallbladder because you took Lexapro?
I did and ended it with having my gallbladder removed and weaning off Lexapro in one week. My first problems with my gallbladder arose a couple of months into taking Lexapro for the first time years before. I stopped and then I had a pregnancy and about 5 year with no lexapro. When I had a traumatic family sitiuation I tried Lexapro again and again a couple of months into it I started to have gallbladder attacks. I took one lexapro after my surgery and it made me so sick I have vowed to never touch it again. It sucked because it really did great for my anxiety.
