I had my surgery yesterday and have had very little pain. It's mostly sore. Some times I have pain at the site where they took my port out. The best thing for you is to walk as much as you can. Wishing you all the best.

@@Tracy6035 Congratulations! Welcome to the other side. I am trying to get a shake in me right now. It's hard, I am getting in the Water they require, but the shakes are another story. I just keep trying. I had surgery on May 20th, and got home on Wednesday 27th. A few complications arose. Slowly getting better... I am allowed strained cream Soup now. So I tried cream of broccoli tonight made with milk, instead of Water for the extra Protein. Great change from sickeningly sweet sugary tasting shakes! That's the first thing that has tasted somewhat good to me since the surgery.

I wish you continued success and healing.

My surgery was the 27th,went home on the 29th and I feel great. No pain. Just a little sore now and then. The only issue I'm having is getting all the fluids in. My doc wants a minimum of 48oz/day but would prefer 64. I got in 32 yesterday. Not great but hey it's a start.

      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.
