The pain gets better the more you move. Walk walk walk...When you're done walking, walk some more.

It will get better, this is just one small part of your journey. I'll be 1 month out on Wednesday, and I feel so much better each week.

Just remember this is not the end, it's only the beginning! Hang in there! Stay hydrated!

When I had my sleeve in November 2016 I was in pain and had to stay two days in hospital because my esophagus was swollen & I couldn't even keep Water down the first day. I was in pain for a whole week I took my liquid pain medication and i was pain free after that. This is the beginning of your new awesome journey so be excited every day that you made the right choice for your health

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
