I was sleeved last may and have a large abdominal hernia that I need repaired. My insurance won't cover the tt. I have heard that you can't go back and get a tt after getting a hernia repair- is this true?

How long (in general) is the surgery

Mine was 30min of surgery. But in or like 2 hours for prep, anesthesia, surgery etc... -

I also posted this thread 5 months ago.... I am now 4 months post op and have lost 60#. From size XXL to M and size 18 pants to 10!!!! It is major surgery and I did get a bacteria infection after the surgery, but was all better after antibiotics. I would do it again in a heartbeat. -

I had horrible headaches for 2 days straight too. Normal with the detox. If u cheat, then you have to detox again.

The reason you feel so crappy is bc you are going through sugar withdrawal. It is better to do it now than after when u r healing. Stick with it.

Is this ok?.... 9 weeks post op. i have been having fake diarhea. I feel that "oh ****, I got to go now" feeling. When I sit, I get terrible diarhea cramps, but little or nothing comes out. This was a few times/ day for a couple days. Then I had yellow mucus come out in a big clump. This happened twice yesterday. Was like nose boogers. I tried miralax, still nothing. I see the doc tmrw but has anyone else had this?
