After reading complications people are going through years later with the SLEEVE... I'm too scared now to do it!

Thanks everyone I appreciate you all being so sweet , caring and understanding,, I rubbed some people the wrong way with some questions already but ... Well I had a thought..

Why are lots of peoples Tummy's so Sensitive post op? I understand you just had surgery .. I hear some people say they can't "tolerate " things like salad and eggs and chicken months out so they done eat it..Isn't the surgery supposed to make your tummy SMALLER but NOT DIFFERENT?? Just asking and please don't bash me I am only curious I'm not being negative! Im most likely having the sleeve done and it was confusing how some people are do sensitive now! Any answers are greatly appreciated !

Everyone's stomach heals differently, I guess. I know I can't eat sugar period. Anything more than 3-4 grams has me clutching my stomach and curling into a tiny ball. Some meats bother me (steak, no matter how tender; pork, no matter how lean) These are things that never bothered me before, but do now. My NUT said if I wanted, I could try again in a few months.

I figure it's just like there were some foods I couldn't eat before I had surgery because they caused issues (anything cooked in grease, cooked tomatoes or Tomato sauce., etc) It's the same post-surgery.
