I AM NOT Sure if i did the right decision or not (gastric Plication surgery)



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

All my life I had issue with food it was the only thing I do if I am stress or emotional I always feel better after, in 2017 i was 140 lb I did the ballon and I only lost 8.8 lb, wasn’t really in control of myself in terms of food and drinks. in a year and half I gain 4.4 lb so I was 136 lb I did the gastric Plication last Saturday 27 April been promised by the dr that the pain is less then the ballon and I can leave same day. I was dying I was so much in pain I had to stay the night in hospital and left the next day but went again to emergency the next day for the pain. I have been out 5 days ago and I am still in pain :(. I feel hungry and tired all time. I am also craving food all the time. The nutrition and doctor Are giving me different answers of what I should and shouldn’t eat.

For example I asked if I can have a Cappuccino with no sugar my nutrition said okay as long as it’s skinny milk but my doctor said no. An hour after I asked if I can have a very small spoon of ice cream free sugar to get energy my doctor allow it but nuturation don’t.

So they are not alright in what I should eat and not.

Now I feel bad with all the pain, money and hassle I have been too. Is it worth it??

i really don’t know what do with the hunger I have and the pain?!

Please write me from your experience some tips and advices.

        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!!
