The sleeve/ hiatal hernia repair Gor me off the omeprazole I've been on for years.

I have had gerd for years and hiatal hernia was fixed during sleeve. I'm now weaning off omeprazole and haven't had gerd. It's wonderful.

Hi, love Chris farley. I'm 2 weeks post op. Protein drinks are not forever. There will be food later. Right now you have to eat correctly to train yourself so your ready after surgery. It's not easy but neither is being heavy. You have to chose. Will it be my life and health? Or will it be all about food ? If your going through the surgery and think your eating habits won't change, you'll be back where you started.

I did it! 2/3 and am 9 days post op. The worst of it was pulling my back out, hoisting my body up in hospital bed. I hardly feel like I've had surgery now. I'm glad I did it and thank you for all your support.

I had my gsv 2/3/21. My advise for post op, sit in the chair, not the bed. It will save your back.

Thanks to you all! What a great help to my piece of mind. I'm going Wed 2/3. I'm at peace finally.

Ask them to prescribe the ppi and if it goes away, you have your answer. OTC type too.

So how are you November people doing?

Loved your post. It too, was very supportive.

What's a mini gastric sleeve? And I'm 58. Thanks grammie!

What's a mini gastric sleeve?

Thank you so much. That really did help. My BMI is 34 and I qualify due to hypertension, sleep apnea and high cholesterol. Believe it or not it was the sleep apnea that qualified me the most. I did loose 20 lbs since May, but it is creeping back pound by 4 pounds. Thanks for the good advise.

What's a mini bypass?

Hi November peeps, I was a Nov person too and postponed it to Feb. I feel that if I can gain the weight back, what's the point? I hear it over and over again and it really concerns me. That and feeling sick. Am I wrong? I need some people's feelings about this.

Smitty74. My date is the same. How you holding out?
