Damn auto correct!! Gall bladder*

I haven't had the conversion yet. I am finishing the requirements from the surgeon. I will be done on Wednesday with everything. I hope to have it this month.

What is a glass ladder? This is my 1st time hearing the term.

I think you are making a great decision. Definitely wishing you the best on your journey.

I am also curious regarding pass through.. I just revised from VSG to DS 2 weeks ago.. the first purée I had I was literally waiting to run to the bathroom. It ended up waiting until the next AM. I keep waiting for the 20-min mute miracle, but so far no problem. I am feeling sick after going, though.

I love hearing that constipation may be a thing of the past.

YES! Anti-depressants...

i had DS revision on 2/18... I was on SR Wellbutrin for years. It was just 2 days ago I realized I was seriously not absorbing the SR product. I was literally withdrawing.... HARD!

I quickly got IR WelUtrin and was fine in 24 hours. My understanding is that any extended release is questionable, but that Wellbutrin is especially not absorbable.. I saw a couple studies.

Hope this helps.

I am sorry I had the surgery.I had previously had a gastric sleeve done but I lost some weight. When my mother was diagnosed with cancer I became her caregiver and focused on my mother. So after my mother died I wanted to focus on my weight again. NALC insurance rules prohibited me from seeking help. So I changed to Blue Cross Blue Shield they said no also even though the bariatric physician recommended my surgery. They said she did not follow the recommend protocol. Even though I explained I had to care for my mother Blue Cross said no. I heard some nurses had surgery in Tiajuanna, Mexico and they were doing well.As a last stitch effort I ask Bariatric surgeon here how much cash. I remember the person just blurting out a fee but it left me with more questions. Long story made short I went to Tiajuanna , Mexico and I have felt sick ever since. I am low key nauseated many days. I have to take pesto bismol or aluminum hydroxide gel to coat my stomach. I had my surgery 10/21/20 after I got home from Mexico I have been having diahrrea ever since. I no longer like foods I used to like. My sweet and salt taste buds are okay. I can barely eat. If I had the chance to live my life again at least for me I would not have raw Duodenal switch. I had no idea after the surgery I would have to wear a poise pad to catch the unabsorbed orange oil that come out in toilet and clothes. Everytime I eat or drink anything it travel thru my body so fast I need to be near a restroom.i looked in the mirror the other day. Skin 9n my arms are droopy, my face amazingly looks like the younger version of me when I was younger. But I feel just horrible. I dont think I will survive very long. I have been referred to a specialist. If the Lord is willing he can help me out of the mess I got myself into. I blame myself!
