I was told I would have to stay at least overnight, possibly more depending on my walking, drinking and pain management... I'm on a deductible an and the hospital stay isn't covered ($500 a night) so I really hope I get to go home the next day lol.

Hi Michelle! I am not sure what Kaiser you are going to. I am going through South San Francisco. I just have my appointment yesterday with the nurse practitioner. I asked about the stay and he told me that the stay is one night but that now they are even sending some people home the same day! Don't know if this helps but that's what he told me.

      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! 😞
