My doctor originally wanted me to take 6 weeks. I I've been out 9 weeks so far and counting. I have had a lot of complications and am about to have a feeding tube placed so it's not a common result at all

I have a very physical job as well and understand how hard it is. I've been out of work for 6 weeks already and due to complications and needing a lot of Iv infusions I'm going to be out another 3 weeks. Hang in there

Anyone else experience complications post bypass? I just had an endoscopy that found ulcers inflammation and stricture at the sit where my new stomach connects to my intestines. Apparently it's because of lack of enough blood flow to the area and is the reason I've been so sick since my surgery 6 weeks ago

Nope. I've thrown up on several occasions (at least once a week). Haven't torn anything

I'm feeling like such a failure right now. 6 days post op and my stomach constantly hurts. Everything, including water goes right through me. I'm struggling to take in and keep in fluids and it is just so hard right now. I'm having major regrets right now and I'm not seeing a bright light in any of this.

4 days op. Suffering from extreme lactose intolerance and a some dumping syndrome. All around miserable right now

had my gastric bypass yesterday and must admit I am struggling quite a bit. have been in a massive amount of pain and am exhausted. Hopping it gets better soon

Surgery at 1000 this morning. I'm having gastric bypass. Can't sleep lol but looking forward to getting this done.

Good luck! I'm first thing Thursday morning

I was told two weeks. I'm surprised they didn't give you a specific date to start it. I'm just glad it's not on my birthday

I had mine almost two weeks ago. Lots of protein drinks (breakfast and lunch) and then a low calorie low fat dinner. I start it on December 28th (day after my birthday). Surgery is January 10th.

January 11th, 2024 for me
