Recommended Posts

I am here and the nerves have calmed down. My nausea has slowed down. I able to get enough bandwith to write a little blurb. I am in pain and it is uncomfortable with every move. My husband has been my savior and here for my every move. Well the nausea is starting to return. So I will post more later.

Ask for something for the nausea or pain as soon as you feel the slightest twinge, you will get it right away. Rest, walk, sip, burp and you'll get through these hardest days. Then you will see the pounds just melt away! Congratulations on joining the loser's bench! We are cheering for you!

Good Luck! I had a band to sleeve revision and was dry-heaving for 3 days, had to sleep upright. The top of my stomach had completely swollen shut where my band was removed. It was rough, but I wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING! You'll get through this in no time!! & while your in their care, ask for whatever you can get! lol

Glad you were able to update. I hope you start feeling better soon. Sip, walk, and ask for meds for the nausea.

Take care of yourself, safe in your travels back home.

Congrats, AmyJ! You're on the sleeved side... I hope you're doing great, and feeling better every minute! I'll be in Mexicali on Sunday, which it looks like is the same day you're leaving. Sorry if we don't get to meet. Nonetheless, here's to your sleeve, and I hope this is a great experience for you!

Best! :thumbup1::smile::thumbup::smile::smile::smile:

      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.
