I am an ICU nurse, not your doctor, but I can tell you this: NSAIDs are corrosive to the linings of your digestive tract. Your have very little gastric breakdown because you have a small pouch. That ibuprofen will erode in the places where the new connections have been made. This could lead to a leak and potentially very serious complications. Talk to your doc about options, but don't fool with the ibuprofen. Seriously. There are very good reasons why your doctor warned you against it.

I am three weeks post-op. My sister did this a year and a half ago and she has been my mentor. My experience is that there are going to be down days when you question your decision. It seems to be part of the journey. I can only go by what my sister has experienced and she says that this is the best thing she has ever done. One day maybe you and I can say the same.

I am three weeks post-op yesterday. I'm kind of in the heat of the struggle right now. Hearing about your success and that things didn't get better for you is giving me the courage to continue. Keep the good news coming!
