I was bloated for about a week after my surgery. I am 11 days post-op and I feel completely back to normal now.

Yep, we all do, I think. It's from all the IV Fluid and (mostly) the CO2 gas added to your abdomen.I'm a week and a day out and it is better.

I'm 10 days out...and bloated still. Losing very little weight also. However, I have been measuring inches and have lost some there.

I need to feel back to normal now I don't like this feeling I feel like I'm overdosing on pain meds just because it makes the feelings go away

You WILL get back to normal, but you CAN'T control the timing -- when. There is no sin to using your pain Rx, that what it's for. You'll kmow when to stop when the pain Rx feels worse than the symptoms you are trying to address with the pain Rx!

Very normal. Remember your stomach is swollen and you were filled with gas. Mine went away after a week n half

      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.
