I got Sleeved after having knee surgery four years prior to clean up a meniscus tear- I have mild arthritis in my knees and still take gabapentine and meloxicam for the pain- I am 7 months post vsg and down 80lbs - I am finally feeling some relief in my knees and can walk way farther than I could before - if I can just stop cheating on my diet and get past this plateau at 210lbs then I think I'll feel even that much more relief
I had my 1-month follow-up and was moved to soft goods. I was a bit taken aback because I thought my notes said liquid, puréed, then regular good. I'm learning that my tummy probably wound heal fully for another 2-5 weeks. I see people on IG eating all kinds of things so I guess I'm not as anxious. I don't want to bust my staples.
