5 days post-op. Is this hungry feeling really gas?



Recommended Posts

I am 5 days post op and doing pretty well. Feeling great except when I drink it makes me feel 'hungry'. I am pretty sure it's gas like they told me in the hospital, but I want to know if anyone else feels that. Yesterday I felt great, but today I was bloated ALL day and very uncomfortable. Is that the norm? :unsure:

I was starving! Or so I thought. Keep doing ur shakes and Water. I caved and added Miso Soup from my nutrition store. Low Protein but I thought I was going to starve to death. Then boom not hungry loving my shakes then into mushy foods yummyyyy.

It took me quite awhile to figure out what I felt. I couldn't tell if I was hungry, gassy, full. I couldn't figure out my stopping point until it was too late. It just takes a while to learn your new tummy. Take it slow and keep up with the Protein Shakes and Fluid.< /p>

Relieved to hear that. I don't know if I are too mych, not enough, if I need to walk, or stop walking. I just know my stomach hurts and don't know why! Frustrating...

Have any of you heard of "Raw Protein" it is a neutral tasting powder. It sounds great for a regular stomach but I'm not sure for a new sleeve. It has live Probiotics and is sprouted brown rice protien. It says Raw,Vegan,Gluten free,dairy free.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
