    Gallbladder

    I ended up in the ER 3 weeks ago with what turned out to be a gallbladder attack. They took it out...it was exactly 4 months from my sleeve surgery. Recovery was much easier that the WLS. I took two weeks off work, but I have a pretty physical job. Dr said I could have gone home same day, but because I live alone I opted to stay overnight as a precaution. So far I haven't had any real issues. I did have a soft taco from taco bell about a week after surgery and it went right through. Dr did warn that high fatty foods would do that. But my everyday diet and food choices have not caused any problems. Good Luck!

    Alcohol intake

    6 weeks post op i got a really bad flu/cold. The Nyquil that I took gave me the room spins. I thought that was pretty amusing. About 3 1/2 months post op I took a half shot of Jager to Celebrate my recent engagement and it was fine. But I would recommend having alcohol so soon after surgery. Give your body a chance to heal.

    How Long will this go on?!?

    I'm almost 5 months out and am having the exact same experience. I talked to my surgeon and he told me that it is only temporary and that it will stop in a few months. He recommended liquid essential fatty acids (he suggested Whole Foods). They have a few different flavors, I got the Orange Cream. I take a tablespoon at night before bed. I also just happened to need to buy Vitamins, so I made sure that I got a multi-Vitamin that also had additional hair, nail, and skin health.
