Hi Y'all,

I had VSG in April 2016. Lost 53 pounds since day of surgery weight bur regained 30 pounds. I've had terrible reflux and was diagnosed with Gerd, and I have a revision scheduled for July 15. Anyone else in this situation? Do you feel as excited about this time around as last time? I don't, and that's really bothering me...

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to come on here and update you all. I'm a little over a month post op and doing great! In the first week or so after surgery I had a little nausea but it was easily managed with the medication my surgeon gave me.

In the last couple of weeks I've had two random incidents after eating eggs. I think it's because I wasn't paying attention and ate too fast but I felt this pressure pain in my chest and immediately knew I needed to throw up because I could feel the food stuck in my esophagus. Once all the eggs came out I felt fine and so far those are the only issues I've had.

My surgeon wanted me to take protonix for a month after surgery, I think that's their standard for all WLS patients and Friday was my last day taking it. I'm still in shock every morning when I wake up without pain in my chest from the reflux. Now that I'm no longer taking the reflux medication I actually feel like it's really gone. I'm so happy!

I hope you all are doing really well on you journey, whether pre or post op. :-)

I just had my revision from vsg to bypass yesterday. I don't remember the pain after my sleeve being like this. I am so sore and it hurts to move. Did you experience worst pain than vsg?
