Did you have the hernia repair? It seems most ppl with the repair have the pain and spasms as side effect. I have it also, i take my meds which help somewhat. Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App

I have the sleeve. I changed my mind at the last minute. I was originally set to get the bypass, but as I continued to research both it seemed that the sleeve was a better choice for me. Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App

Passaic County and now Durham. We aren't that far. Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App NJGirl, I just read in another thread that you used Duke and Dr. Yoo....I was assigned Dr. Yoo, too. Did you like him as a surgeon? Were you happy with Duke overall? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Hi. Yes I was very satisfied with Dr. YOO and his team. The night crew(nurses) was the best, so attentive.

I also had mine in 5/25 and I have been experiencing the spasms since day 1. My dr gave me diazepam which i take every 8 hrs. It helps with the spasms but it will still hurt when u swallow your food and once it reaches your belly. Its not a cure all, but better than feeling every single spasm.

Hi, new to all of this. Surgery was 5/25, also had hernia operation which kept me in the hospital longer. Was in hospital 2 weeks b4 for pain similar to heart attack. (It had to be the hernia ) Still sore. Is the phase 1 eating schedule the same as if i didn't have the hernia? Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. I think i was dehydrated the first night home because i had two separate migraines that night. Dr on call said i needed more Fluid and to add gatorade. But i am not still getting much down. Everything spasms on The way down. Not a good incentive to eat or drink. Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App

Surgery was also on 5/25 with hernia repair. Still having spasms and pain. I haven't worked up to 64 oz, i doubt even 20 oz. I really need to get on that. I haven't lost any weight. What am i doing wrong? Sent from my SPH-L720 using the BariatricPal App
