Hi guys, I just had the surgery yesterday. Terrible day for me, the surgery went well and it was quite fast but as soon as I woke up the chest pain was terrible. I w I s feeling drowsy all day long. Today I woke up way better and they sent me home around noon. Now I'm telling hot, like if I had fever but I dont have. I also burp a lot and the hiccups are terrible. Do you know if that's normal?

the burping is normal, some people get hiccups when the swallow to fast. Walking actually helps.

I am having the same issues. I got my surgery 6/19 and have had so much gas, burping and hiccups. It’s so frustrating.

My surgery was the very same day. The hiccups are better today so far. I still feel swollen and hot. But only last night I hit 100.4 F. Today I feel also hot but my temperature is 98 F. I guess its cuz I went for a long walk outside.

I had hiccups in the hospital and it was awful. They ended up giving me something in my IV to help. If they don't subside, call your doctor's office and let them know. Its miserable for your whole diaphragm to be moving when you just had stomach surgery.

I feel the same. Had my surgery 6/19 and all went well but when I woke I was in so much pain. It's day 3 and still have lost of chest pain. I am walking a lot and keeping my fluids down but it's so bad.
I just hope it ends soon.

all normal — you should feel better 3-5 days out! Walking is really only thing that helped! Hopefully you feel better today!

Fortunately the hiccups went away after the second day. O had diarreah yesterday and today but I think its due to the fact that I'm already having light Soups and Greek yogurt. Other than that I feel better. A bit weak thought.

      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.
