I’ve had significant complications. Gastric emptying slowed to 55% in 90 minutes and 50% is considered the cut off for gastroparesis. And I’ve developed swallowing issues or severe GERD (didn’t have it before) on Monday I got an upper endoscopy, esophageal manometry, which is pure torture, and a 48 hour test with a transmitting capsule attached to my esophagus. Capsule only just detached today and was quite awful. Don’t know what is wrong till I see my GI doctor on Monday.

Complications began about 3 months out.

Great job! You should be proud!

I’m about three weeks post op now and I’m just now starting to actually feel hungry. It’s not like this overwhelming hunger like it was before but it’s there. I think now that I’m back at work and working 8 hours mostly on my feet that my body is craving food to keep me energized and going!
