annav562 40 Posted January 22, 2013 My first weigh is a week from today...im seven days post op and feel a little bloated. Im on full liquids and have noticed my tummy looks same as I did on day of surgery. What can I expect at my first weigh in?? Will doctor run any tests?? Also I've read some doctors perform xray to check there are no leaks...my doctor never ordered that in fact I only was in hospital one night :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lovealways 287 Posted January 22, 2013 Xrays should be done before leaving the hospital. That's how my complication (which is common) was found! Hopefully they give you an xray at some point...this surgery is a serious one! I also have my first post-op appt tomorrow. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheddingtummy 14 Posted January 23, 2013 My surgery date was 1-02-13 and as of 01-01-13 the hospital I used here in Michigan converted to new "modern methods" following post op and did-away with the X-ray/barium swallow tests. I am currently three weeks and have not had any X-rays either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexandria Hashagen 4 Posted January 23, 2013 I had to have the leak test before they would discharge me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
