Sleeved two days ago



Recommended Posts

Still feel like I can't get much down and feel every swallow go into my stomach. Does this go away? Oh and everything tastes gross and makes me feel nauseated. How were you at two days out ?

It'll pass soon as the swelling goes down. Just sip all day and follow your Drs plan.

Everything you described is normal. The first week or two is hard, you just had major surgery,

They shoved a tube down your throat that's why swallowing everything hurts, and cut burned stabled and sewed your stomach back together that's why you feel sick to your stomach.

It gets better! But yes it takes time.

Hang in there.

Agreed, the first few days are pretty intense. I ate a lot of sugar free popsicles and drank broths. Never got a full popsicle down even...and I actually threw up quite a bit the first two or so days. I am almost 4 months out now, and I can eat anything without issue =)

Somehow knowing this is normal helps make the first few days easier to deal with, Thanks!

tiny sips! For almost the first week I had my measuring cups lined up and I was sipping them every 10 minutes. IT WAS HARD! :0) After that I kept, and still use, a Water bottle with the oz. measurements on the side.

I have to admit my commitment to getting all my liquids was the threat of hospitalization again due to dehydration.

Sip your tiny sips. OFTEN! I'm about to start my 3rd month and I get dehydrated very easily and it's made worse by the fact that I can't gulp Water without my stomach having serious spasms.

good luck!

      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?
