Anyone ever get paranoid that their surgeon didn't do anything? I saw my tiny pouch on xray, and yet I'm skeptical. How crazy is that?

I feel that way. I am a week out and told my husband. I do not feel a lot different,maybe they just put holes in me and did nothing. I thought I was the only one!

I just feel like I shouldn't be able to tolerate what I can. I can eat 1 full egg! I get full, but I don't get sick or anything. Same with the Protein shakes lol. It's weird.

I know what you mean. It's scary. I'm not sure if I'm just being paranoid.

It's alright! I'm two weeks post-op and interning, working, and going to grad school full-time, so I'm more than tired when I get home lol. I was ready to go back, but being that I'm so busy, it's hard to get in all the recommended Water and Protein throughout the day. When do you go back?

I went back Monday, I was 2 wks post op (my Sx was 1/14) & I can't do it, I'm sweaty & feel like I could pass out! I was drinking H2o okay, just not getting the Protein in & still sore as all get out : / My scrubs were too new & rubbed on my incisions, etc, etc....It was perfectly wrong : ( Guess I will be riding the couch for a while longer. Glad your doing well...btw where do u get all that energy???

No energy at all. lol. I had none before surgery, and none now haha. Today I'm actually a bit dizzy, which I'm concerned about. You are still a bit sore? How are your incisions healing up?

OMG I swear I thought the same thing!!! I don't feel that much different and I started to think they just put these small incisions in me and took my money lol...I thought I was the only one who thought that!!!

      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.
