  1. I had my Gastric Bypass 1 month ago. I also wanted the sleeve. After speaking with the Dr. I realized that the bypass was the way to go for me. It has been around for over 40 year so they know what to expect long term. The sleeve is fairly new about 8 to 10 years. Also my husband did not like the fact that they remove your stomach. With the bypass it's left in and can be reversed if needed, but rarely is. The bypass also is a deterrent from eating things you should not because you will have the dumping syndrome. I hope that helps.
  2. I felt the same way. Did not feel like I had anything done . Lol. But, I spoke to soon. The gas they use to blow your stomach up really got me. It's started a week after surgery. I had my dr. Appointment yesterday and the dr. Said it can get in your tissue. It was very painful Thursday thru the weekend. Getting better now. 12 days post - op
