I had my surgery 01/16 and I'm up 2#s but I feel really bloated and have preggo tummy. I know it will come off eventually though. I'm not concerned.

Plication

I have PCOS and have had to use fertility drugs for my first two children. I got my surgery march 2012, got pregnant May 31st 2012. Be careful not to get pregnant within the 1st year. I never in a millions years would have thought I could get pregnant without fertility drugs. I didn't find out I was pregnant until mid July. I Had a healthy happy baby. Only gained 11# and she was 8.8#s. However I did have a complication with my surgery and had to have a reversal and gained everything back. Just had it done again and Now I'm post op day 4. First time around I lost 56# before I got pregnant.

Maybe there is an obstruction? I had one with the plication. To find out you have an upper GI done.

That's my date in Mexico as well. What are you getting done? How's the shakes..lol

I will be there as well. Have you found anyone else?

16th in Mexico. Can't wait down 3# from the liquid diet that I just started.

Yes I had popped a stitch too. My circumstances were a little different though. I had plication done with OCC march 2012 and got pregnant May 2012, popped the stitch at 7 months pregnant. Had my baby c-section feb 2013 and stomach collapsed and cause an obstruction June 2013. Had to have emergency surgery to reverse plication and spent a week in the hospital. Not fun at all but I don't have any regrets or blame Dr. Ortiz. Had a upper GI done Nov 2014 and everything is normal. Signs of esophagus scaring, the X-ray tech asked if I had lots heartburn but I do not at all. Could of been due to the tune they put down my nose to my stomach to drain the blood during the ordeal. Today is a new day, new year actually ????and I am starting my journey once again. Going back to dr. Ortiz and getting revision in 15 days. Started my pre-op diet today.

I had a complication with my plication that was done with Dr. Ortiz but it's kind of unique and I don't think it was his fault per say. Just a sequence of events that lead up to it happening. Anyway I am going back to him this month for a revision.

Good Luck! I will be there tomorrow and in the same boat as you. Well not at your location but in Mexico nontheless. I'm not even going to sleep tonight I already know it...lol.

Has anyone ever just ate something unconsciously without thinking about it and perhaps suffered the consequences. I have my surgery tomorrow and feel like during the first few weeks I am just going to pick up some chips and start munching without even realizing it. I would hate for this to happen and end up being in major pain.:eek: I don?t I?m just worried I guess and feel like how is this really going to be afterwards. I have done it in the past, I would be on a high protein diet and eat something out the blue and a few minutes later I?d start spiting it out, like oh my goodness I ruined my diet on accident?lol?Is this a common fear or am I crazy?haha :thumbup1:

I am getting the Sleeve Plication tomorrow afternoon as well. :thumbup1: Good Luck to you, I wish mine was early in the morning too, but I guess I will live.
