I'd talk to the surgeon. Chances are this is no big deal, but better to be on the safe side.

Thank you everyone soo much for the advice I appreciate it more than you know! I'm about to call my doctor & explain everything to him... I started drinking my Protein Shake last night every 5 min & it made me feel a little better than to not drink it at all.. But I'm still very woozy & light headed.. The pain in my stomach is so bad.. The fact that I can't get all this bowel movement is really messing with me... Should I take pills? Laxitivs? Ugh my life sucks right now

I'm in OC too, surgery scheduled for June 1. Did you do outpatient surgery? I'm scheduled for outpatient and very nervous about that!

Oh that's exciting! Goodluck! Honestly I had my surgery at Orange coast memorial medical center. I don't know if I was outpatient or not. I'm sorry.. But best wishes to you :)

I was sleeved on 10th of May. If you feel gassy try GasX strips. Dissolves in seconds and you'll feel better quickly. Let it dissolve under your tongue if you can.

Outpatient just means you go home the same day as your surgery. Do you mind me asking who your surgeon is? Mine is Ali. I'm super nervous!

      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! 😞
