Hello!

I just had my surgery yesterday, and I probably have a leak. I am so scared and I and freaking a bit out. Some prayers and positive thoughts would be very appreciated!

So, why do you think you have a leak?

Praying everything is ok for you. I had a leak that was discovered 3 weeks after my surgery, and even though it was tough, I made it thru and am ok today.

stay positive!!

Thanks for the positive thoughts! I had a CT scan that showed no leak, but because there was so much scar tissue and changes in my anatomy due to the old band, things were wonky. I'm happy to say all is well now, and the Clear Liquids are staying where they should. I have an amazing doctor!

What a scare. I'm glad that you have confidence in your doctor. That makes a lot of difference. No one wants to go around with things all wonky with a doctor that's all wonky, too.

I'm glad things are all good, But I'm still curious why you thought you had a leak to begin with.

Hello!

They thought I might have had a leak based on my swallow test. I'm a nurse and I work where I had surgery, so I got more info after my test than the average patient would have. When I looked at the xray pics, there was a spot that looked like it might be draining into the wrong area (i.e. not my bypass site at the y junction). The CT scan came back ok, and thank God I'm ok!

      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! 😞
