Well I can't say I'm not tempted but I've never sued anyone in my life and I need to go through trying every other avenue before it comes to that. I will need to get a second opinion. And scans its going to be expensive. But even so I need to at least follow up with the doctor and give him a chance to make it right.

One things for sure. I'm not ever having this surgery again. It was a hellish 3 weeks post op. It was very painful. I thought I was going to die a few times. Not to scare anybody. Everyone is different. But I am also disfigured now.

OMG it sounds like you were one of the (very) unlucky ones - I'm so sad for you.

Again I'm sure it would be in the DR BEST INTEREST to fix anything he has done wrong.

The old saying someone "someone gets good service they tell 1 person, they get bad service they'll tell everyone!"

Yeah something needs to be done. I want to try to lose weight but if I'm only down 10 lbs or nothing by week 12. Than I will know for sure it was a failure and he can't blame it on swelling or healing etc. And blaming me for overeating is pointless because that's why I had the surgery in the first place. I am doing Protein and staying away from sugars. But not cutting out natural sugars. And I'm not drinking soda anymore. So if there's no weight loss by than something is really really wrong here. The only foods that fill me up are bulky foods. Like chicken and real thick heavy things. But it takes way more than a normal sleeved person can eat. Almost as much as before. I'd say if I lost any weight so far its minimal. Maybe just a few lbs at week 6. I need a scale to know for sure. I haven't lost any clothes sizes I know that. They do fit a tad better though.

I just had aloe Vera juice straight up nasty. But good for me hopefully. It tastes like fleet oral enema if you've ever had that. Except with a planty aftertaste so you don't puke. Anyway if my problem is due to a leak or acid this will take care of both. I have 2 liters. Don't wheez the juice.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
