Checking in post op



Recommended Posts

I am 5 days post op and home. Had a great experience with Dr Aceves. Walked within 10 minutes of getting out of recovery and had IV removed 24 hours after surgery.

The only problem I've had is an EXTREMELY sore throat from the breathing tube.

Hi Anne,

I'm so glad you're home and your recovery is going well. I'm exactly 14 days post-op with Dr. Aceves, and I feel 200% better than I did a week ago. The first few days were rough, but every day since has been a substantial improvement. Today is my first day back at work and it is going surprisingly well.

Even now, I STILL have a bit of a sore throat!

Take it slow.........

Congratulations! So glad you had a great experience! The best is yet to come. The first 10 days was a struggle for me because of the clear liquid diet, then you can start enjoying flavors again along with the miracle that you see on your scale!

      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! 😞
