Vsg revision to Mgb

[Fatgirlfedup 0]

I had my Mgb revision from vsg on 2nd October 2018 does dairy products case flauntence and dihareia after Mgb? Do these symptoms last long or they go away with time?

if you're lactose intolerant, yes. Otherwise, no. Some people do develop lactose intolerance after surgery - sometimes it's temporary, sometimes it's not. I've never had problems with dairy (fortunately!)

I personally had no issues with dairy before surgery but now I can't have much before I get really sick to my stomach. It usually goes away within an hour but its pretty awful while it's there... enough to ruin plans.

I did not develop lactose intolerance post-MGB. But I know some people that did; however, it resolved 6-12 months later. I hope that turns out to be the case for you, Fatgirlfedup.

Hi ladies. Just wondering how you are doing post MGB conversion? I have been considering for a while to convert my BGS to MGB. But I’ve been worried about some of the side effects.

Nova, how have you been post surgery? Is the lactose intolerant still real? How much weight have you lost? Any other side effects to report? What would you say The big difference is that you’re feeling with the MGB as opposed to the sleeve?

@catwoman - How about yourself? How did you make out with mgb as opposed to your previous sleeve?

@fatgirlfedup - And how have you been making out after surgery? What are the differences you’re noticing from the sleeve?
