Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
Monday I went in for the Gastric Bypass. It went like a textbook. My Doc said I could go home Tuesday Eve, But I am glad I asked for an extra day. Being on IV Fluids takes away the need to get your water, and I wanted a Little more guidence for going into the Stage II full liquids. The first day I did not really have any pain other than my back, thanks to the hospital beds. Today I could feel the stomach a bit more. I may be going off all the Blood Pressure Meds Already. It's been a fast 3 days!
Have a seat next to me on the loser's bench, I'm new here too, as of 8 days ago!

Congrats and welcome to the bench!!!!
