    Addi2009 got a reaction from iolorelltull in Feeling Sick!   
    Hi everyone, this is my first post. I was banded Monday and feeling sick today. I don't know if it's the SF stuff or what! I've been drinking about 1.5 bottles of water/day and a couple of Popsicles and some broth in the evening. Oh, and I was able to get down some Greek yogurt today. Just wondering if feeling sick was normal 3 days after surgery? Thanks:)

    Dr. Alvarez has a utube video about the gastric sleeve stapler and he shows the instrument with the staples and shows it after stapling a piece of ham. It is very educational this might answer your questions.
    This is the actual link. It was loaded in May of 2011 but it will help answer some of your questions.

    My doctor in Sacramento used a size 40 on me. I understand the difference in a 32 to a 40 is very little. It also has to do with how close they follow the guide of the bougie. Some follow closer than others. In the end I don't think it really makes all that much difference. Here's a video from Dr. Alverez about it.
