Three Days Post-Op -- Click Click?



Recommended Posts

Hi All:

I'm waking up in my own bed this morning -- had the surgery in Mexico on Monday, and spent yesterday traveling home to New York.

Just a weird, but probably normal, concern....if I bend over, I can feel the port kind of "click" against me. No pain -- well, I have all-over tenderness, I mean, I WAS cut open! :D -- but just a little click-click that lets me know it's there.

Sound familiar, anyone?

Oh, and I gained five pounds....I assume that's Water weight from the IV and the travel?

weighing yourself after surgery is just (silly). all the fluids they gave you, are you surprised? am i ? no. not really. dont worry about weighing yourself for a few more weeks. you need to focus on getting healthy and getting well. i expect you to follow what the dr's said to do. (or you are grounded little girl)...

as for the click, nope, never heard of that one. i am sure its fine but call the dr (anytime you have concerns) just to ease your mind.

again, congrats on the surgery. dont stress losing weight. you are now recovering from major surgery. good to hear from you :)

      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?
