Gastric Bypass, MacLean Surgery..
You must see the consultant for blood tests 6 months following
gastric bypass or MacLean surgery. This will ensure that
the surgery is working correctly and you are receiving the
correct vitamins and achieving your weight loss goals. This
initial visit can then be followed by annual checkups.
adjustable laparoscopic Gastric band surgery
After the Lap-Band, ideally your first aftercare visit should
be 2 – 4 weeks after your surgery. The first adjustment
to the Lap-Band occurs on the 6-week post-operative visit.
This allows time for the band to scar in place and to minimize
the chance of the band slipping out of position.
This should be followed by regular quarterly visits for
the first year and by annual visits thereafter. Subsequent
visits depend on your weight loss.
The average patient undergoes 3- 4 adjustments before the
ideal tightness is established. The lap-band generally requires
adjustments when patients are feeling hungry, not losing
weight and not having satiety early after eating. Sometimes
the band is too tight and fluid needs to be removed from
the band. Patients whose band is too tight are unable to
eat any solid foods.
If your
band is overfilled, the consequences may be that you are
restricted from eating or taking fluids. So please
remember that for your safety and comfort the surgeon will
try to reach your optimum adjustment by coming up to the
correct amount of fill fluid. This may mean that following
a fill you don't loose weight and may need an increase in
the fill. So please be patient and if your not loosing weight
satisfactorily discuss this with your aftercare surgeon.
In addition you may need the band readjusted
or loosened under the following circumstances:
- Going on holiday
- loosening the band will enable you to relax more on
holiday.. it can be refilled on your return.
- Where you may have
a number of long haul flights – the band can become
restricted due to the air pressure differenced
experienced with long flights.. it may need deflating
slightly for a while.
- When pregnant –
the band is deflated a little to enable you to eat more
comfortably during this period.
