All patients undergoing surgery must maintain close contact with the institute's team, especially in the first few days after surgery. Any discomfort, nausea, abdominal pain, fluid drainage from wounds, or difficulty breathing should be reported immediately.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Occasionally, patients vomit or experience pain after eating. This may be caused by improper eating habits or by the band tightening after the balloon fluid is injected (adjusted). By eating slowly and calmly, you'll learn to understand your stomach's signals. Persistent vomiting is definitely a warning sign. In this case, it may be necessary to readjust the amount of fluid in the band.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

During the rapid weight loss phase, taking vitamins is recommended. If the average weight loss is 4-5 kg per month and the patient is careful to eat a varied diet, this isn't necessary. When necessary, your doctor will prescribe a liquid vitamin supplement containing multivitamins, particularly the B complex.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The period from surgery to weight stabilization is considered a period of food deprivation. It is not recommended to become pregnant during this period of food deprivation, even though the fetus has priority over the mother in obtaining nutrients. However, if you become pregnant, it is recommended to remove all the fluid from the balloon. Once your weight has stabilized, pregnancy is no longer a contraindication.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Any tablets you are to take must be broken into small pieces and crushed before taking them. In many cases, medication for conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or asthma must be adjusted (reduced) after surgery. Patients should consult their doctor regarding this matter.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Many patients experience constipation after surgery. This is primarily due to the fact that less food intake leads to a smaller stool volume and, therefore, a reduction in the number of bowel movements. If laxatives are necessary, it is recommended to avoid so-called bulking agents and instead use liquid laxatives such as lactuose.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

After surgery, you will need to see your doctor regularly as an outpatient. Initially, these visits will be weekly, but will soon become less frequent depending on how you respond to your treatment. Throughout this period, your weight loss and level of well-being will be monitored. Once your weight has stabilized, you will need a checkup once a year.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It will be important to modify not only your eating habits but also your physical activity. It's generally recommended to start exercising slowly.
