I had a 36 size bougie. My surgeon said the risk of leaks and complications goes down with higher bougie sizes.

You get better customer service and they help with transportation and where you stay. They have a primary job of taking care of the patient and giving you a good experience!

I find myself holding my left side and people are going to start thinking I'm pregnant because of how much I hold my belly. I still get pain driving too.

Thanks for that hopefully the same happens to me!

Has anyone had issue with circulation since surgery? Even crossing my legs or sitting on the toilet for under a minute my legs get all tingly like my circulation has been cut off? It was definitely not like that before.

I am going through the same pain in the same area. It feels like a dull pain that sometimes radiates to my back. My surgeon told me to give it more time for healing. He said 8-10 weeks is the full recovery time frame. Good luck to you. I know how you feel. Just take it easy. It takes at least two weeks before you really start feeling good.

July 30th with Dr Zavalza!

I would check out Dr. Zavalza and Dr. Luna. They have a Facebook page support group and the Surgeon can skype you and answer any questions. I have had a great experience with them so far. My surgery is scheduled for 7/30.
