DUMPING Syndrome...it's not just for bypass patients
AChristian replied to AJW's topic in Food and Nutrition
You should get your gallbladder checked out. If it is gallbladder, from my experience, it will eventually happen more and get more painful. I had mine removed so I know how it starts off and how it progresses. Wouldn't hurt to have a simple test to see if you have gallstones. Apparently, alot of people have problems with their gallbladders after this surgery. Mine was removed several years before surgery though. Just my thoughts. -
From everything I've learned, its much too soon for mashed potatoes. Remember this...Just because It will go down ok doesnt me its safe right now. From what I understand , your stomach is trying to heal and these first 4 weeks are CRUICAL. Its not worth a bite of mashed potatoes. I would error on the side of caution.

AChristian replied to sleeve 4 me's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had Dr Kelly. He is amazing. His resume checks out. Tell your friend to look at their resumes and call the places and verify their education. It pays to be safe. -

I was sleeved on the 19th. This is just a little stumbling block due to anesthesia . You are gonna be fine. I promise you it won't stay like this. It's so worth it. I predict you will be much better in 24-48 hours!!!
