I think I've only seen it mentioned once or twice' date=' but have no clue what it is.[/quote'] For my surgeon, the next day after surgery, hey give you a swallow or leak test. You swallow barium and they the X-ray Doctor looks to see if there is a leak, if not the you get to start your Clear Liquids. I'm getting ready to be discharged. I had my surgery on Friday Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST 1 Mocha2871 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
