Hi, Everyone!
erri here from SLC. I am 5 weeks postop, have
lost 45 pounds and at least one pants size and one of
my chins. Unfortunately, the belly is the last thing
to go..<br>Good luck to all the new folks who are
awaiting news from your insurance companies. the waiting
can be excruciating.<br>I have a question for the
postop folks.<br>Have any of you had a problem with
being unable to eat more than an ounce or so at a time?
I can only eat abt an ounce once or twice a day
right now, and get nauseated when I take my
medications.Also am very sensitive to anything with any fat
content,it generally comes back up.<br>Dr. Halverson says
its not unusual to have this happen during the
recovery period, but if it has not improved in 2 weeks,
that he may want to do an endoscopy to see if my
opening is scarring over and closing up. Has anyone else
gone thru this and how long did it take to get over
it?dont want to scare anyone who is about to have the
surgery, because I still am very glad to have had
it…wouldnt change my mind at all. But this is getting a
little old….Any input would be most
apreciated.<br>Thanks!]<br>Terri
