Hi, how long did people wait to smoke after surgery? Wether it be hookah, cigarettes or marijuana? :-)

I AM IN NO WAY SAYING YOU SHOULD DO THIS AND IF ANYONE JUDGES ME OR HAS SOMETHING TO SAY, I PROMISE YOU I DONT CARE.

With that being said yes i am a POTHEAD and i smoked the day i came home from the hospital. I dont get higher or anything like that because of the surgery. All is the same when it comes to smoking weed for me. Just my honest real life truth. Its what i did and im fine and doing well loving life. lol but i would say stay off the cigs. Stuff is terrible for you!! lolol

I smoked h ookah a week post-op. No problems except I felt a little guilty for some reason. Didn't get approval from dr or anyone but...I'm still here haha. Exactly one month out now and still doing great. So 🤷‍♀️ but that's also just me.

Seriously I literally needed an answer for this because boyyyyy I have been sober from my bong for 3 months and just looking at her so lonely is hurting my heart lmfao I think I should definitely ask my surgeon

I'm right there with you Jake. Smoked my bowl as soon as I got home from the hospital. The only issue I'm having is having to mentally take control of the munchies lol... Any tips?

Yah, I'd be scared of the munchies, too. I don't like to smoke and prefer edibles, but all the ones I have are from pre-surgery and they have sugar in them since they are gummies. I'm afraid to eat them because I don't wanna dump! That would be a hell of a bummer, man...

As many Keto dieters as there are, there must be some low carb edibles.

I think some places sell THC infused olive oils if you wanted to try to make something less sugary than the premade stuff

I know it’s not pot but anyone have kratom post op? Were you still able to get the effects from capsules?

I was actually going to ask my doctor about this, as I used to take it for foot pain. I assume it might be tough on our pouches though, similar to an Nsaid maybe? I'm only 6 weeks out from surgery so I don't plan on trying it out yet but maybe down the road so I'm curious if anyone has experience. As for the effects I'm sure they're the same if you got the sleeve not sure though with rny

      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.
