I Have A Question About Going To The Bathroom



Recommended Posts

Hey guys I'm getting ready for the swallow test. He wants to send me home if it goes through

If he does, and you are still ill, do as I did in the hospital that wanted to send me home...look on the net and find the best hospital within a couple of hours of you that does gastric surgery and tell them you want to be transferred there. Fire your doc and they will give you a new one because you are newly sleeved. or is you are in a sleeve hospital, ask for another docs second opinion and ask for it in person. Sleeve surgeon only!

We are here for you! Get some answers before you go back home. I didn't fight hard enough at the start and that nearly killed me. I don't want to see you go through what i did.

I'm hoping the 7hr gap here means they found the problem & are taking appropriate measures to correct it.

What about the Fluid outside your stomache? What's it from? How are you feeling over all? Still light headed?

      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! 😞
