I was taking the kids out for Halloween fun today. I think I may have over did it cuz now I'm in pain. I ate Soup before & sip Water and walk, no heavy lifting. I don't understand why I am in pain. I am 5 days post op.

you might have over done it, how far did you walk? Five days is not to early to walk around the block then build from there if you are ok. Hugs I hope you feel better soon if not call the doctor.

You're in pain because you're only 5 days post op. It's going to be 4-8 weeks before your body has fully recovered inside and out. At only 5 days post op, everything is still very wounded and raw.

You have to take it easy and give your body time to heal.

Yes, Soup is on my diet but really thin clear Soups. You were right lassie, I did over do it yesterday. It was a lot of walking. First I went to my child's soccer game then we went to a carnaval at the glacier. Then we went to another Halloween carnival at school and then took my oldest to her Halloween dance at her school. And topped it off with some last minute shopping and got home after 8 pm. When I got home I took my pain meds and went right to bed.

I am up this morning sipping on coffee thinking, "Why did I do that to myself".

Thank you friends. I feel much better 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.

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