RJ, that is a frightening tale. So glad you are on the road to recovery. I can't believe you don't regret it, however! What were your symptoms, and how long after your sleeve surgery did this occur? Thanks.

I mentioned my symptoms in a post above....

And no I would do it all again..I am not lying it has been a miracle for me to have done this and come this far.....The reason I tell my story is because so many people say I am soooooooo ready for this..And I know out of experience that you never are truly ready and you never know enough...The cards are dealt and and you lay them down as you experience this life changing journey.... :)

You are a walking miracle. You have stayed positive thru all of your trials and tribulations. You truly inspire me. I hope to have an outlook and attitude as you do thru my journey. ( I've read several of your post and comments)

May I ask you some questions? If so, my questions are below

How long after surgery did you start having complications?

are you able to eat now?

Do you exercise yet?

Are you feeling better?

How long are you post op now?

Where did you have your surgery? And your surgeons name?

Are you in the Dallas area ?

I started to feel unwell after 3 days...had the surgery Nov.6th 2012 and was in surgery on Nov.12th

I can eat and drink fine now...I have trouble with beef, white meat on chicken and pork..Other then that there are some foods I don't like and some I love like fish any kind of fish...

I walk as much as I can..I am hoping this spring that I will be well enough to hire a trainer to help rebuild muscle mass and exercise more

I am 13 months post op

Deippe N.B Canada

My surgeon was tops and treated me like a queen and never gave up on me..He and his team worked their butts to save me..And they did!!!!!!!

So no I am not near Dallas.... ;)

If you look at my profile you can see the surgeons name..it is French so I have trouble spelling it

RJ your are truly an amazing person and I too am very thankful that you have been kind enough to share your story. I pray that 2014 will be full of many blessings and healing. I did have some regrets after surgery just because I was overwhelmed with pain and not being able to take in fluids & oh and lets not forget about the gas pains. However, since I have been reading post on this forum I feel much better and thankful to have you all as pals :) :) :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
