I had my surgery on 4/18. I was driving by 4/23 and have driven every day since. I feel tired but mostly normal. I still have pain, sitting on the couch is really hard. I started to feel hungry a few days ago but I'm still on full liquids. From reading the other posts i feel very blessed.

Did anyone else have it kind of easy?

Had my surgery 4/24 & Yea I’m feeling pretty good. No trouble getting in my liquids, going to bathroom regularly. Was getting a lil suspicious actually, bc I thought it was going to be worse. Still sore and tender but I haven’t needed pain meds since they stopped giving them to me in the hospital. I feel blessed.

I just joined today and feel very lucky! I had VSG 4/24 and came home 4/25.

I have zero pain, nausea, discomfort, etc. I'm able to drink plenty of fluids and today started Full Liquids! I feel full and have lost 18lbs since the surgery! I hope I don't have a set back! Seems too good to be true right now!

      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?
