I was sleeved on April 25th . I guess you could say im one of the lucky ones... i experienced NO GAS pains WHATSOEVER not even a slight tinge. I was in Moderate bt bearable pain immediately after surgery. But the drugs took care of that quickly. Morphine does NOTHING for my pain. I was switched to Dilotin not sure if thats how its spelled bt it is a GOD SENT!! i was in the hospital until Friday 04/27 and ive only taken pain meds ONCE since being home. My doctor releases us on pureed diet. its definitely a challenge getting in liquids. Never thought id see the day that i couldnt eat a whole popsicle in one sitting but it HAPPENED.. My mother baked chicken and green Beans then pureed it for me. OMG it was like a bowl of Disgusting looking HEAVEN lol.. Im just grateful that my sleeve has LOVED everything i put in it.. Im so greatful to have this opportunity to take control of my life. And guess what.. i didnt have the BUYERS remorse. im pretty sure a bad day is down the road bt for right now.. IM BLESSED!! hope everyone elses goes well!! I was sleeved by Dr. Virginia Weaver in Memphis,Tn

      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.
