6 days post op report



Recommended Posts

I am feeling better and the full feeling has not left yet. It is hard to force down the Protein Shakes since I feel full all the time, but I manage. The gas has finally left my shoulder area. It does hurt to cough or sneeze where they located my port, but it is not too bad. i will report next when I start on soft food in a few days. So far so good :)

Glad to hear you're doing well after 6 days! It will get better as you move forward. When do you get to go onto soft foods? I was allowed pureed foods for week 2 and then soft foods for week 3. Don't worry, when you start eating more regular type foods you will start to feel some hunger again :)

Today begins my 4th week post op. I actually didnt do the mushie stage at all and i was only on full liquids for about 4 days. was on Clear Liquids for a week. I went in to see the dr 1 week post op and he said i was healing great and doing good and to just do full liquids until i felt like i could handle some regular food. I have not had any sliming or pb episodes. I dont have a fill yet. I go in for a fill in a week. I was really happy he let me skip mushies i was not at all excited aobut the baby food. My advice follow drs orders.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
