    January Sleevers ❄️

    I had my surgery 01/16 and I'm up 2#s but I feel really bloated and have preggo tummy. I know it will come off eventually though. I'm not concerned.
  2. I have PCOS and have had to use fertility drugs for my first two children. I got my surgery march 2012, got pregnant May 31st 2012. Be careful not to get pregnant within the 1st year. I never in a millions years would have thought I could get pregnant without fertility drugs. I didn't find out I was pregnant until mid July. I Had a healthy happy baby. Only gained 11# and she was 8.8#s. However I did have a complication with my surgery and had to have a reversal and gained everything back. Just had it done again and Now I'm post op day 4. First time around I lost 56# before I got pregnant.

    Maybe there is an obstruction? I had one with the plication. To find out you have an upper GI done.

    16th in Mexico. Can't wait down 3# from the liquid diet that I just started.
  7. Yes I had popped a stitch too. My circumstances were a little different though. I had plication done with OCC march 2012 and got pregnant May 2012, popped the stitch at 7 months pregnant. Had my baby c-section feb 2013 and stomach collapsed and cause an obstruction June 2013. Had to have emergency surgery to reverse plication and spent a week in the hospital. Not fun at all but I don't have any regrets or blame Dr. Ortiz. Had a upper GI done Nov 2014 and everything is normal. Signs of esophagus scaring, the X-ray tech asked if I had lots heartburn but I do not at all. Could of been due to the tune they put down my nose to my stomach to drain the blood during the ordeal. Today is a new day, new year actually ????and I am starting my journey once again. Going back to dr. Ortiz and getting revision in 15 days. Started my pre-op diet today.
  8. I had a complication with my plication that was done with Dr. Ortiz but it's kind of unique and I don't think it was his fault per say. Just a sequence of events that lead up to it happening. Anyway I am going back to him this month for a revision.
