Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 I was told that you will feel bloated and sore for up to 3 months. I can tell my stomach is still alittle bloated but nothing like it was. And I will be 3 months post-op the 29th of this month. Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 It is different for everyone unfortunately. It took me 12 weeks to really feel human again. It took me almost 4 months (yes you read that right) to get all of my strength and energy back. But don't go by me I took ALOT longer than most people do.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Being tired is perfectly normal...at my one week check up, I told my dr. and he said it was normal, because first your body is recovering from surgery and second your body is basically on a starvation mode... I started taking B-12 sublinguals at about 3 weeks out and starting feeling back to my old self about then, but it is different for everyone...nap when you need to, rest when you need to, and keep walking and drinking fluids, that will help you recover faster... hannah > I ame home yesterday just before the football game.
