Recovery

For those of you that have had a sleeve and mini bypass. How would you compare the recovery of each? I know experiences will be different, but was the mini bypass easier, harder or the same than the sleeve?

      The sleeve was super easy for me, I felt like I didn't even have surgery. The MGB was harder for me the first two days. Lots of gas in my shoulder and my stomach was sore and bruised. But I'm 4 day

    The MGB was harder for me. I had a lot more gas pain and discomfort. Nothing terrible though but the sleeve was super easy for me, had surgery Friday and was back at work for a full day on Tuesday. MGB was worse mostly because I ended up dehydrated and with double pneumonia. Had it not been for that I think I would have felt great by about day 3 or 4 post op.
