Hi everyone,

I'm Stella and just had the procedure on Wednesday, June 13. I am having serious regrets now-mainly due to the gas pain. Has anyone felt like they made the wrong choice? I am scared that this awful feeling will never go away.

Thanks,

Stella

I had the surgery Monday, June 11th. 3rd day after surgery was the worst. My pain from gas has been great as well. I have found that GasX strips worked wonders and when you do burp to blow air out of your mouth! Sounds crazy but it helped! Today-Friday has been the best! Lots more energy, few gas pains! Stick to it, you DID make the right decision!

It was the third day after surgery! Today is the 5th day after my surgery. I am my parents house today at the pool! I am not swimming but everyone else is! I feel sooooo much better today! Hang in there. The gas pains do ease up. I hardly have any today.

      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.
