Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Six days post-op
Sorry I've taken so long to write this update. My surgery date was last Friday, 8/7/15. Surgery went really well. I was discharged on Sunday 8/9. Recovery has been good. I have had 5 previous abdominal surgeries, 3 c-sections, gall bladder, and hernia. I was expecting the usual pain and discomfort, but I have been pleasantly surprised. I have much more mobility with this surgery. I'm going to assume that having all of the incisions from this surgery above my belly button has something to do with it. All I know, is that while there is pain and discomfort, it is so much easier to handle than all of my other abdominal surgeries. Thank God!!
I took my weight on a home scale before I left for the hospital on Friday, and I checked my weight again today and I have lost 12 lbs already!!! I'm not sure if I should be happy, or concerned.
I've been doing well getting all of the water and protein drinks down. I've managed to drink over the 64oz minimum everyday.....until today. It's 10:30 at night and I've only managed 44 ounces all day. Any suggestions out there? I'm going to call my nutritionist tomorrow. Well, off to bed for me. I'll add more when I can.
