My doctor has done over 800 and he has only had two he couldn't complete I think.

I would consult another doctor to see if it could be repaired without bypass. That's a long time!

I'm so sorry! Yes, they gave me liquid hydrocodone and phenergan tablets that knocked out the nausea.

I am 4 days post op and I could go back now if I was taking it easy at work. Listen to your body and use caution. Good luck.

Seems like a wide range of doctor's orders on food stages!

It's over the counter. I think I will try the prilosec instead. I will also try to stop sipping earlier as well. Thx!

When were you told you could start purees? Just curious if everyone is made to wait 2 weeks.

I'm four days post op. Every night I'm having wet foamy stuff coming up constantly. I've tried ranitidine and raising my head up on 2 pillows. Any other advice? It's driving me crazy and I don't want to sleep in recliner forever.

Hi Bayougrl, I am from New Orleans and my doctor is there too.. you? Conrad1 I'm actually in NELa near Monroe.

When did you get to start purées?

4 days post op and feeling pretty good. Only problem is reflux at night. Down 10 lbs so far.

Made it through surgery on Wednesday 12/16. It was a little more uncomfortable than I had imagined. Battled nausea for 48 hours before it disappeared. I'm drinking well and feeling human again today thank goodness. Just very weak right now. Down 8 lbs in 3 days so that's a good start I suppose.

Hey guys. Things went well in surgery.. I'm back in the room trying to sip. Man that's hard. My stomach hurts but pain meds are helpful. I had a good bit of nausea this morning but I think it's gone for the most part. Couldn't do green jello at all!!! Thanks for your support!

Waiting in pre-op. It's sleeve day! Now where is that medicine to take the edge off?

I'm the 16th Good luck everyone!
