Anyone feel 'normal' after getting their staples out?

[AutismMom 92]

As soon as my staples were removed I felt like old me! If I didn't take all these Vitamins and could eat like the old me I wouldn't think I'd have had surgery...BUT I do take a stack of vitamins and my diet is VERY different, so I know he did something in there. Here's to feeling normal!!

I think it's fantastic that you feel so normal, only better than normal, really!

I just had my staples out this a.m., and I don't quite feel normal yet, but I'm definitely on my way.

Staples??? I hope my surgeon isn't using those...

My staples are titanium and permanent on the sleeve itself. I had internal disslolving sutures on my incisions but all that was visible to me was blobs of purple surgical glue on the outer incision sites, which eroded on their own in the shower over two or three weeks.

Yeah, I thot the stomach was the only part stapled inside. I better make sure I ask about that!

I had internal stitches & glue...plus external staples just to make sure everything stayed closed! I had them for 10 days. On day 10 I had them removed!

Thats funny u would say that because I'm 18 days post-op and myself and another person that had surgery the same day said the same thing. We said , did our Dr. Do anything becsuse other than my stables I feel normal. I can drink with no problem. Eat soft food with no problem. Tuesday will be my 3 weeks....will see.
