I'm not sure...my surgeon told me with the sleeve that you don't ever have dumping syndrome...but he did say there would be certain foods I may never be able go tolerate ever again.

Welcome...I am new too! I was sleeved on the 11th...sure is a experience afterwards..I hurt very badly in my chest from the gas buildup.

I should get mine out Wed...thank God...at 9am this morning from 11pm lastnight I drained 20 and then from 9am-2pm I only got about 10...it still has some strings in places but you can see fluid in it too...some is pink some is clear like

I am 4 days post op...had my surgery on Wed the 11th. I am having problems with my drain. It keeps getting a stringy clot in the tube and I try to push it through and just have to work and work it...I'm only draining about 10ml now every 5 hours...don't know if that's bad or not. I know the less you drain the better...but this soon after? Any help would be appreciated...thank you.
