Everyday is a new day



Recommended Posts

Day 10 post op and can't figure out whats happening. My stomach behaves differently, every day. Different types of pains, different sounds. At times gases, at times fullness, diarrhea, then no stool of 2 days, then diarrhea again.

And I have some difficulty figuring out if my stomach is full or empty. Its the same feeling after food and few hours of not eating.

I'm 3 months post op (as of today) and I am still figuring out my new sleeve. Some days I can tolerate certain foods and other days everything makes me sick. Hopefully over the next few months, I really start figuring things out. Best of luck to you, hang in there.

I'm having surgery Jan. 28th. I'm kinda having 2nd thoughts. Could be my nerves perhaps? I'm just curious if you regret having the surgery? Is there anything you would have done differently?

@@Stephie76, kuds to you for getting the information beforehand. I had not researched so much before the surgery, because at home everyone wanted me not to do it and didnt have neough time at work. Regret-No, but atleast till now, I am not ecstatic at the weight loss, though day 11, and I have dropped below 200lbs, last time I was below 200 was 7 years ago.

But I guess if your doctor says, you will benefit then go ahead.

      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.
