I've really, really struggled with my decision to have the surgery. I'm currently 14 days post-op, and not able to eat much at all. My little stomach is not tolerating many foods and its pretty disheartening. I'm not sure I got enough accurate information to make a good decision about having the surgery in the first place. The immense pain and crippling nausea right after surgery, were never discussed in any pre-op teaching. I was blinded by the idea of rapid weight loss.
I seem to be struggling with daily diarrhea, usually 3-4 times a day. I didn't have any issues with constipation after surgery. Since about post-op day 4, I've had very watery bowel movements.
Lots of people seem to say they had more issues with constipation. Has anybody had my same problem? Is there a timeframe when it might stop?
Any advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated.
