Recommended Posts

Hey everyone just wanted to share a little bit of what happened with my gastric bypass surgery I had my surgery on 11/7 and had to have another one on 11/8 and stayed in ICU 4 days after yes that's right ICU and had to have two tubes put in me to drain the fluid's out of my stomach stayed in the hospital for another 5 days

Now am still recovering just got the last two removed 12/7

I am getting more energy every day and every day is better day and I'm just grateful that I am here to tell my story at first I wasn't feeling that I made the right decision but now since I am healing and feeling better it's okay it's okay I should be returning back to work in another week and a half so it's okay

Bless your heart! My surgery was the same day. Gastric bypass. Can't believe how good I felt.

Had a gastric sleeve 4 years ago and was miserable as hell from day 1.

Hope you to continue to stay strong and healthy.

If you don't mind my asking, what happened that you had to have a second surgery the next day?

Bless you! Glad you are starting to feel better.

Birdie bird, you sound great after having two surgeries. I pray you will continue to recover quickly.

The machine that clamps off your stomach didn't clamp off part of my pouch it didn't hold I was bleeding internally

Oh, wow! I'm glad they caught it and fixed it quickly. That could've been bad.
