Recommended Posts

Hey all!

Im new here and really enjoing this forum! I had surgery April 26, 2022 and so far so good :D

But I had the SASI surgery and cant seem to find many posts on it! I know its relativly new but was hoping there was a topic on that one as well as sleeve and bypass :(

But if you who read this have had the SASI i would love to hear your experience as im only 4 days post op :D

never heard of it before. Googling it it appears to be a standard sleeve but it appears they connect the stomach to a part of the small intestine. Is this what you got?

Wow, fast answer!

Yes, its kindof a mix of bypass and sleeve! I know it has been done here in Norway since 2015 but not sure about the rest of the world [emoji28]

As far as i found out when I did research it makes people more likely to keep the weight down compared to sleeve. And food also has 2 options to travel so its less trouble with Vitamin loss. Its also possible to do a full gastroscopy as you have acces to all intestines! And no dumping [emoji846]

Hi Chiru,

I also had a combination of the sleeve and bypass on April 26th as well! I’m not exactly sure the name for it other than it’s a form of gastric bypass.
I had mine done in Mexico so these kinds of procedures are apparently more common abroad then in the U.S

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
