I had mine done last week and it was the best sleep ever. Just took 5min and it was all done. Had a little sore throat but went away fast.

Good Luck :)

I had mine last Tuesday. Nothing to it! A little bit of a scratchy throat that quickly went away! Good luck!

How long we're you there? Zdid it take all day? A couple of hours? I know the 6 ladies that was at the intake appointment will also be there to get theirs and my husband has an appointment later in the afternoon.

I was only at the surgical center for 2 hours. The EGD took to minutes, I had a little site throat after but it was gone within 12 hours. It was not bad at all

Thanks! I was worried my husband would have to take a day off and he's already being sequestered one day this week.

I had one on my birthday!!! It made me so confident about the surgery since I had to be put to sleep and I was nervous about that part. It was a piece of cake. The sleep felt so refreshing. Mine took about 20 minutes from start to finish.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
