    HICCUPS!

    If you had a hiatal hernia repair at same time of your sleeve it could be your diaphragm being irritated. I have a few min of hiccups with meals sometimes especially if I eat too fast.

    Hysterectomy & Sleeve at the same time Questions

    I am a surgical nurse and have never seen a sleeve and a hysterectomy at the same time. That is a lot of surgery at same time. Is your surgeon doing both procedures or is another surgeon doing the hysterectomy?

    Fecal Transplant Scheduled

    I am a director of surgery and we have done this procedure multiple times. It's very successful. You need a donor who does not live with you. Typically housemates share the same flora. You blend it in a blender and place it at various levels of the colon. It's very effective.

    Newbie Question

    Matt I was sleeved the same day. My stomach woke up about 5 days later and is making some interesting sounds. As long as you have no pain odd noises seem to be common.
