Cheri, Thanks for the excellent advice.

Thanks I'm adding vicks and a belly band to my shopping list today.

Ok better to be safe than sorry. You don't need the extra pain anyways. Pls keep me posted and get well soon.

I have a brand new pill grinder and am willing to use it! I will pick some up today. Thanks ????

Nope you're not alone. My question is: where are all the "sleep specialists" now? They want to sell you some over priced machine to make you look like a fighter pilot in bed. They cram this sleep apnea crap down our throats but what about this new found, post op insomnia? Who's going to sing me to sleep now?!? (Yelling) SHOW ME HOW TO SLEEP AAAAGGHAAAIIINNNN!!! (Just kidding....I really need a nap!)

You are not alone then. I'm tired of counting sheep! This surgery must do something to the melatonin levels or whatever.

I'm going to stock up on Rx cups in the morning! Good idea thanks!!!!????

Speaking of sleep.... Are you sleeping at all? I'm not.

I hope not. I think my stomach is still numb. I am scared to death I'm going to blow a stitch! Lol

I'm 6 days post op and I keep finding myself grazing all day. I take a sip (literally a small tiny sip) then dash away. 5 minuets later I take another. Then repeat. Is that normal? Should I be sitting down and measuring and monitoring each and every gulp? The funny part is although I'm on all liquids (I was on clear until my md cleared me today for full liquid) I still feel so naughty doing this sip & dash dance.

I walk everywhere with a pillow. I'm still very sore. I can't wait till this bug passes. I will be ready to hit the gym by then. I will ask my MD for a good suppressant. Thanks for the idea.

I got sleeved on 1/7 and now I have the flu....I hate coughing. Anyone else out here sick and in stitches?
