A lot of the back pain can be from lying on the operating table.I had a revision and was on the table 3 hours.I had a lot of back pain. The gas pains that take a while to go away and the back pain was made better by walking around to relief the stiffness.

I was sleeved in 2011.The had a really bad cough that wouldn't go away.Dry cough.It was acid reflux.I didn't have the normal symptoms.I had revision to bypass Nov 2016.No meds helped with my reflux.Dr said the only way to get rid of it. -
You can always look up calories and other nutrition values on Google before you go.

I get it when I eat too fast or forget to chew enough.As soon as symptoms start stop eating.I find walking a around some helps sometimes.

Bypass recommended Not Sleeve
GmaDiana replied to kell911's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't be afraid of bypass,especially if it can reverse your diabetes.I was afraid of it initially.So I had the sleeve in 2011.Nov 22 2016 I had bypass because of severe acid reflux issues.Best decision I made. -

I have used a cpap for years.Mine does ramp up and also find using nasal pillows a lot more comfortable.When you lose weight you will need another sleep study.If you have a stuffy nose try using an antihistamine,to clear your nose and tubes to your ears.

Usually worse.I had to have revision to bypass after 5 years with the sleeve.
