When do you start to feel normal (after surgery)

[Jim in Utah 25]

How long is the recovery, what were people's experiences? I am being sleeved in a couple days.

You'll be surprised. The people I had surgery with were pretty much back to a normal life within a week or two. We were shopping (in Tijuana) two days after surgery (surgery on Sunday, shopping on Tuesday). Some people have a rougher time, but many are up and back to regular life quickly. I drove eight hours to work in a remote location ten days after surgery without a problem, and could have gone back sooner but my site was on regular days off.

Every person is different, I found things very easy, some haven't. I wish you luck!

I was one that had a rougher time because of nausea after surgery. I still get very nauseated if I eat too fast or too much in one sitting and I am 3 months out. It took me about a month to feel like my old self and get back to my normal activities.

About 10 days or so.

I felt physically better within 7-10 days, but I was really fatigued and had some brain fog for the first 3-4 weeks. By a month out, I felt like I had my energy back.

@@Cody's mom My experience was the same as Cody's mom. We had the same surgeon and no one in our group had any difficulties. Great time!
