I developed a blood clott in my pelvic area and lungs. Started feeling really bad during my third post-op week. Coughing and breathig problems. Went to urgent care and was treated for bronchitis. I actually git better, but didnt wuite feel like I shiuld have. Went for my 4 week post off visit in Houston, described to my surgeon my symptoms and my Dr had me tested for blood clots and they were discovered so now I'm on a blood thinner and really down about it. Stayed in the hospital several days. Im breathing normal now, but recovery will take a while. Looking back I wonder if i moved around enough, so be sure you push yoursel and walk. I'll be monitored often, checking my heart which apperars to be ok and on blood thinner for a while. Trying not to let this keep me down so I can stay positive about my weight loss 32 lbs . Anyone else out there can help encourage me, I'd appreciate it. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

Thanks, yes my insurance did pay Aetna

New to the site and how to navigate thru it, but I'll learn. This is a wonderful site.

My Insurance did pay. So thankful

I am really pleased so far. No more throwing up, acid reflux and trying not to let my husband know how often it was happening.

I was sleeved 12/28/17. I had had a lapband for about 8 year, lost some weight but my experience had not been good. Constantly vomiting, food getting stuck. It caused problems with my esophagus dilating and had to later be removed. I was able to get the sleeve and so for I'm doing well. Have to stay on a clear liquid diet longer because of the band removal, a small hernia and the sleeve process, but everything has a price to pay. So for I am dow 15 lbs in 7 days and I feel fine. By the way I am 61 years old and a determine Woman following all the rules Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app

I had a revision on 12/28/17, lapband to sleeve, still a little sore and on clear liquids. I'm 6 days post-op and down 12 lbs. Will see doctor today for follow up visit. Really excited about my new journey. This is a wonderful site, so helpful. Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app
