Mine leak test was like that only about 3 weeks postop. The surgeon let me see the whole thing and explained it all to me, just like in this video. I was so impressed that I didn't care that the stuff tasted awful and i took 2 extra sips just so I could see it again.

So when we overeat, our food gets backed up in the esophagus and that's why it hurts so much.

Great video!

Yeah I lived this lol. Were you guys asleep when you had your leak test.

Some surgeons don't do leak tests, some ppl here are still pre op. personally, not only did I live it, I was given a DVD of mine.

Great video!!!

I was in the ER over a week ago with a kidney stone and they did an abdominal x-ray and a CT of my abdomen and I kept asking the techs and docs if I could look at the films to see my sleeve! Nobody would let me. I think they thought I was joking. My doc didn't do a leak test so I wondered what it looked like!

Thanks for posting!!!

I loved that video! My surgeon gave me a snapshot photo album of the surgery except no photos of the staples or end result so I've been dying to know what my sleeve looks like. I wonder why they didn't let me watch the monitor as I was taking the leak test. That would have helped me realize how small the sleeve actually is! No wonder I eat like a bird!

I dont understand these surgeons who didn't do a leak test. I would be scared out of my mind to leave the hospital without one.

Mine didn't. He said he didn't particularly find them helpful. What might not be leaking at the moment the test is done, could leak afterwards.

It didn't bother me at all.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
