I've really been doing well since surgery, getting all my Protein and fluids in with little problem. The only problem I have is ever since surgery my incision that the doc removed my stomach has been extremely painful and I've had a severe pain in my right middle back that won't go away. I went in for my 2 week post op appointment and the Doctor said there is no way you can be having gallbladder problems this soon! But sent me for an ultrasound anyway. Just my luck, I have to have my gallbladder out next week. Geez Louise, this happen to anyone else?

wow so sorry! I wonder why they didn't take it out during your switch surgery? Unless you didn't have stones pre op? I am going ask my surgeon if he plans to remove mine. I have a couple gall stones so I am hoping he does and its safe.

Yes! I had my gallbladder out years ago and I didn’t realize how much it had been affecting me until it was gone! I bet you will be feeling better quite soon!

Angy, had you ever had gall bladder pain before weight loss surgery? I have had pain but it went away as long as I watch what I eat... another thing to tell my surgeon before surgery! ughh

I thought I did once but it was not like this, so maybe not. This pain is bad and constant. I cannot get relief in any position and right now I'm still on full liquids so not eating any fatty foods. I'll just be glad when it's over!!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
