Suggest Diet Restrictions Post A Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Hi I am have a gastric sleeve procedure done this Friday ... I went out of state and left my protein drinks behind accidently ... I had to put something in my stomach so I ate some steak ... what can I take in this next few days to make sure that I can go on with my surgery ... My doctor had me on a 2 week liquid diet
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is nothing to worry if you don't have the protein drink with you now. If this is the history of abdomen surgery (gastric sleeve), you can have any light diet, or as it is being advised for a liquid diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Akhtarhusain
