The surgery was not what I expected. The first night I had some nausea due to the gas. The nurses checked on me constantly, I did not speak Spanish and the nurses spoke a little English so we work together to understand what each other was saying, no big deal. The second day was better but my vein my iv was in blew and my iv had to be moved. No fault of theirs I have bad veins. One nurse looked for a place to stick me and didn't feel comfortable inserting so she called an older nurse who got it pretty quickly. Third day were dismissed from the hospital to the hotel (by the way is beautiful) after we checked into the hotel off to shopping we went with Omar. I came back a day early and Dr. Kelly rode across the boarder with us to so he could talk with my husband and I more since we were leaving early he didn't get a chance to out an eat together. How many doctor in the US would get in the car to discuss anything with much less want to know if he needed to improve anything. If anyone has questions feel free to email me. I feel great just some bruising on my tummy where the instruments inserted. I hope this helps.

      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! 😞
