6 days post op and still not in the groove of things



Recommended Posts

Getting back to school is important but at this point so am I. I was worried about missing days before surgery now I'm grateful for the days I attend lol. My setback yesterday is just another trying obstacle in my path. Now I'm really going to focus on healing.

@ you're doing very well. 6 days post op I was just lying in a ball on my bed and struggling to get up and moving. It takes time and everyone heals differently but you're doing well.

Once you're on week 2 and 3 of your diet it gets a little easier. As I'm 2 weeks post op I'm starting to feel less fatigued. I'm supposed to go back to work on Monday and since I'm a nurse I'm worried it might be a little too much for me. Either way I have to brave it out. You can do it! You've done great so far!! Keep drinking and keep up that Protein.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
