Sleeved on Dec.17 - feel like A$$



Recommended Posts

This is the first time I've even been on my phone.

Surgery was Monday around 1pm and then I spent 3-4 hours in recovery vomitting.

Finally got to my room around 8pm Monday night. I have never been in so much pain.

I've been walking as much as possible, standing up or laying down is what is most comfortable. Otherwise, horrible heartburn.

Just started 30cc every half hour of Glucerna & that takes much better than Water.< /p>

I'll probably go home tonight or in the AM. Praying I begin to heal faster, I just want to sleep!

How's everyone else?

Sorry to hear - I was like you. The first day/night were the worse. Dr had to give me stronger meds and the anti nausea meds were gods send. Don't be shy to ask for meds - it will help you relax and get some sleep.

Keep hydrated and do the walking.

      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.
