I have surgery tomorrow and was having bad tension, and on friday took 2 aleve and last night took 1 aleve for same thing... was looking over my paper work and totally forgot i wasnt supose to take aleve, I week b4 surgery. I called the call center and the nurse there said go ahead and go to surgery and they will tell you, any one ever take aleve or any other anti inflammatory meds b4 surgery and was turned away... I've waited to long and feel if they turn me down i might just chicken out. and suggestions???

GASTRIC SLEEVE OR GASTRIC BYPASS... MIXED EMOTIONS
★D's Life★ posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Well Hello... My friends call me Yathie.. And this is my story... About 4 years ago I wanted to do the operation,{GASTRIC SLEEVE} then came to almost doing it and change mind,{ SCARED OUT OF} Now my Surgery is scheduled to February 24 2014 and it's been a hell of an up and down mad roller coaster ride, In August of 2013 was my first visit with my surgeon on deciding which surgery is best for me. As I was hoping she would say the sleeve, which she did, but then 1 month before my scheduled surgery date, she changes mind in saying that maybe the gastric bypass would be best since I suffer from heartburn and even though I lost some weight for surgery my hearburn is still bad and also have a hiatal hernia.. Once she told me this, I literally had a panic attack not there of course, she told me think about it and i will call Tuesday. Tuesday comes and I changed my mind this week of thinking it over was killing me with anxiety and told her no im not going through it. So the next day comes and im thinking to myself what im i thinking calling back saying id like to keep it and continue surgery. So I was just wondering does the gastric bypass make you lose weight faster than the sleeve?? I just feel like i don't have great elasticity that ill be all wobbly and will hate my body more than i do now. Can anyone help out in answering my question? Thanks -

You are welcome! If your heartburn is that bad I can understand by they are suggesting bypass but I guess you need to decide what would be the lesser of two evils. If you get bypass you will have to take vitamins and supplements forever d/t the malabsorption. If you have the sleeve you may need to be on antacids or something for GERD. Tough decisions since they are irreversible. Maybe pose this question on the forum instead of here... you may find a lot of ppl who had to make this dec...
