I am terrified! I have to have a leak test done on Monday! I am already nauseous and not holding things down very well. I am 3 weeks out! Yikes!!!

Wow why at 3 weeks? Does he think thereby be a liquid. It may be easier farther away from surgery I had such a hard time because it was the first thing I swallowed at surgery I didn't know what would happen. Just a very weird feeling,

My surgeon tested for a leak before I ever came out of surgery, but I have been having some issues with nausea and diarrhea that he is just checking to be safe. I go in on Monday morning

I had no problems at all. Needed to take a few small sips and the xray machine moved around me. Then I wanted to see what was going on so doc had me take a few more sips. The barium wasn't any worse than some of the Protein Drinks i've tried. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. It was so cool to watch my sleeve in action!

I drank the barium for my pre-op test last Friday. I have had WICKED gas since then. I don't know if it was the fizzies they made me drink or the barium. My "stuff" is still coming out a lighter color.... I can't imagine having to do that AFter the sleeve!!!!!! chewbacca in the house... wawwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

It might be easier now that you're a few weeks out and the swelling is probably decreased quite a bit. I hope it goes well!

      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! 😞
