Hey everyone, I am new here and I am getting the gastric sleeve done. I am on my journey to become a healthier me after I had a doctor tell me to my face that I am too fat to have my hernia surgery to repair it from when they took out my gallbladder. So here is a list of questions some might be able to help me with. Yes, I know I can ask the doctor but unless they have lived thru it, they can only speculate on what could happen.
1. I have dentures will the rapid weight loss effect how they sit in my mouth?
2. What are some of the best protein shakes out there in order to ensure I get the protein I need?
3. How long were you down after surgery? How long until you started driving again?
4. Did you have a person helping you with after care and if so, how long?
5. I am disabled due to a nerve disorder; Is there anyone here who has a disability that has gotten the sleeve and how was your recovery?
I am sure there will be more, but these are the main ones floating in my head right now.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to not only read this but answering any question that you can. Also, all advise is accepted.
