Hi I'm April I'm 41 from NYC I have a quick question. I am post op 2 weeks (this Thursday), and I have not felt good at all. The main problem is if I go for a short walk my heart rate was 111 compared to last Monday of 115. Can someone please tell what's causing this? I saw on my discharge paperwork that I had altelectasis Pretesting. Since then my stomach is still hurting n I have a horrible rash from the pads on me. I'm trying not to be anxious but I really can use the best info I can get.i also tried to get an emergency appointment with my Dr they couldn't get me one so tomorrow I'm going to City MD to try n get some Help. Ty in advance

Sorry you're not feeling well. Good luck with your doctor appointment tomorrow, I think it's a good idea that you're going to get checked out.

And I will pray it is something minor, easily fixed and you get to feeling so much better that the post we see will be a Happy😜One! I'm a much older person and I hate anyone suffering, even at 41. I'm 73 and have more than my share of battles but I come out on top as a rule and I believe you will too.

I'm sorry your Dr couldn't see you. Hope everything turns out ok at City MD

I am 6 days post op VSG, tomorrow will be my 1 week anniversary. I felt absolutely horrible for the first 72 hours to the point I actually second guessed the surgery. The symptoms slowly but steadily improved. Today I feel almost 100% percent normal except that I'm a little sore still, not hungry and I struggle to drink shakes and Water.

My wife's friend had the same procedure and she looked like she was ready to leave the hospital 2 hours after the procedure. No pain no issues nothing. She was back at work the day after she was released.

Everyone is different hopefully as the time passes you will feel better too.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
