I tried to be tough and thought I would bounce back in one week because my surgeon said most people go back after one week. I ended up taking a 2nd week unplanned because I was just not ready physically. Mostly constant nausea and fatigue were the problem. I would plan on at least 2 weeks off. Everyone is different. If your situation allows more time, I would take it because you really dont know how your own body is going to react to the surgery, diet, and weight loss.

I had mine done 11/28. I had these spasms very badly. I still have them, but the intensity is decreasing day by day. I found that if i just suck on a popsicle i didnt have the spasms and i am still staying hydrated. I think one popsicle has almost 4 ounces of Fluid. Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

My dr office told me they actually have 30 days to respond. And thats about how long it took. Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

I am scheduled for surgery 11/28, but dr called and want swallow study because i showed slow emptying for egd. Can this prevent surgery? Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

Yes, I am. I start a liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery. Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App
