Gastric sleeve surgery is painful and after the gastric sleeve surgery you will almost always experience some pain.

For those who have gastric sleeve surgery most of them report pain in the range of 5/10 with some people's pain getting up to a 7/10.

Your doctor should have give you instructions regarding pain with the gastric sleeve surgery.

If the pain is unbearable or not what your surgeon told you to expect, you should let your surgeon know.

You can sometimes gain weight after gastric sleeve surgery.

You might have gained weight after gastric bypass surgery because of changes in your stomach and intestine that allow you to eat more and absorb more calories.

After gastric bypass surgery the amount of weight you will lose is between 1 to 2 lbs of weight per week or around 25 lbs to 50 lbs in 6 weeks.

The most successful weight loss surgery is gastric bypass weight loss surgery.

The Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy weight loss surgery is the most widely used, and safest, in the bariatric world.

As with any major surgery, gastric bypass and other weight-loss surgeries pose potential health risks, both in the short term and long term.

The cost of weight loss surgery ranges from $14,000.00 to $24,000.00 depending on how much weight loss you want to achieve and what type of weight loss surgery you want performed.

Gastric Bypass weight loss surgery is one of the cheapest types of weight loss surgeries.

Gastric bypass is tied for the lowest-cost procedure if you have insurance that covers bariatric surgery.

Without insurance, it has the 6th lowest average total cost.

Weight Loss surgery is worth the risk and worth it.

Weight Loss surgery is pretty safe as long as your overall health is good.

If you want to quickly lose weight then weight loss surgery is the best option if you can afford it.

The average cost of weight loss surgery is between $14,000.00 to $23,000.00 depending on the type of weight loss surgery you have.

Weight loss surgery is paid out of pocket though unless the weight loss surgery is needed for medical issues.

Weight loss surgery has some risks but the risks of weight loss surgery are pretty low and only around 1 percent of people do die from weight loss surgery so that's a very small percentage.

The weight loss surgery does help you be healthy after you lose the weight as well.

The risks are very low so I would say that in my opinion that it's worth it to have weight loss surgery if you need to lose weight fast.

Yes gastric bypass surgery is considered to be major surgery.

Weight loss surgery and gastric bypass weight loss surgery can help you lose weight which prevents heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes etc.

But the gastric bypass surgery does come with some risks which your doctor should let you know about.

Death can occur after gastric bypass surgery but it's very rare and only around 1 percent of patients die after having gastric bypass surgery.

However only around 40 to 50 percent of gastric bypass surgery patients gain weight back and usually it's just a small amount of weight that they gain back.

So it can be worth the cost to have gastric bypass if you have the money to do so.

Having gastric bypass weight loss surgery helps you lose weight a lot faster than just dieting.

Although still dieting and exercising helps you keep healthy along with losing weight.

The average cost of gastric bypass surgery is between $14,000.00 to $24,000.00 depending on how much surgery you need as well as who does the gastric bypass surgery.

Pain is still bearable for most people. Patients often experience the most pain between days 3 and day 6. Pain during days 3 to 6 is common because you are up on your feet more, turning your trunk more, and generally more active than before.
