I had my lap-band removed Monday. The surgery went well and I was home before noon. However the last 2 days I have felt really crappy. Shaky, headache, sweating, nauseous, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, gas. I haven't been drinking enough so part of this could be dehydration (I know the headache is), so that is my goal for today.
I just wanted this surgery and this part of my life to be over and done with and I could move on to getting sleeve surgery. My surgeon requires 90 days of healing between removing the lap-band and doing the sleeve surgery. Given how I feel I am really glad both surgeries were not done at the same time. I was having A LOT of eating problems with my band, so I guess it was unreasonable of me to think after surgery everything would just be hunky dori. Well thanks for listening(er, reading) I just needed to gripe and vent.
