Recommended Posts

Had the sleeve done then four hours late had internal bleeding and had another surgery. Wasn't how I pictured it. Have to spend another night here to get Iron in my Iv to make sure red blood cells are ok dull ache in my incisions. But also dizzy and light headed. I just want to go home.

So sad to hear about your complications. Hopefully the worst part is over with now. Rest up and heal your body. Best of luck.

Sorry things didn't work out as planned. Once you get home, you will feel much better. And then, you are on the track for your new life, which is very exciting. Stay positive and get better!

Sorry to hear about the additional surgery. Glad you are healing well another night in the hospital. Hoping you can get the Iron up and get home tomorrow.

Oh no.

I am very, very sorry to hear that you've had to endure this.

I can only imagine how ready you are to be done with this and be back home.

You've been through a lot and I hope the recovery is smooth from this point, at least.

You'll be home resting up real soon.

      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?
