PS. Do you think I need to stay in Hotel close by hospital the night of my surgery, or travel home since the next day will probably be worse??? The town I live in does not offer lap band, so I wonder if there are complications, should I be in that town??????????Thanks

You don't get to be overnight in Hosp?

I don't know I had a two hour drive and it was next day. I was so nauseated that I couldn't have made it the same day. But, you may not be like me (I also had my gallbladder out). What kind of car do you have if it's low to the ground rent another one van or suv that sit's up hirer. My port area has hurt so bad that I couldn't twist or sit on low surfaces, let alone get up fom one. Good Luck.

I did not have to stay in the hospital over night I was teher from 5.00am untill 5.30 pm It was a long day

I am doing OK

Today I actually did stuff around my house that has been long forgotten about I am score tonight but that is my own fault for over doing it.

Today I felt so much better and I could not sit down any longer

I am a stay at home mom so I will not be returning to work

My doctor said that he wante dme off work for 2 weeks and that he will write a letter saying that for my employer I looked at my husband and asked him if he thought it would help for me to get a 2 week break he just laughed.

Good luck at returning to work

      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! 😞
