Just got home, had a bad time due to complications (which I should have expected really with my history). Was 6 hours in surgery and 4 hours in recovery, and have been left with a feeding tube and a huge list of instructions. Feeling very bewildered. Hope I will feel better after a good nights sleep in my own bed.

Hi Diane, yes I’m still here, enjoying reading all the posts. I’m doing great, thanks. To be honest, the only thing giving me any trouble is the feeding tube. I’m no longer using it, and it is being removed on June 3rd. I have started eating some soft foods, and to my relief I have only lost 20lbs since surgery, as one of my biggest fears was losing too much weight. I am no longer taking any medication for anything, so it appears that the op was a great success

Just a little update. Had the feeding tube removed today, and it didn’t hurt. I feel fabulous! And it’s very exciting feeling skinny
