Hi. I am 7 days post op. I still don’t feel like I got the Protein and liquid down yet. I am getting better bit by bit everyday but still struggling. It probably is because of lack of experience.

I had an internal bleeding after sleeve surgery. I felt extreme dizziness after the surgery. My blood pressure went up and blood count kept going down, which was the sign of internal bleeding. Thankfully, my doctor was calm and he said I have to be hospitalized a few more days but not to be too alerted.

Also I didn’t have to get blood transfusion in the end but I was very close. I am out of hospital for three days now. Just a bit feeling weak overall and not feel as bright as I should feel since I haven’t felt that great after the hospital. I mean I am not pessimistic about the surgery, my decision, or the future result. Just feeling a bit down because if difficulties of meeting the requirements Does anybody share similar feelings?

Complications are scary. You never imagine yourself having them...and when you do...it kinda gives you a jolt of reality...that this thing that we're all doing is very serious. I think your reaction is very understandable.

Wishing you an uneventful recovery from here on out:)

Wishing you smooth sailing from here on out! So glad the bleeding was caught early and addressed.

I really don’t think they should send people home so soon so they can catch this stuff easier. I’m glad they did for you. I am praying that you have smoother recovery.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
