Has anyone had any issues with passing out? I had my sleeve done on 1/29/13 and the beginning of feb while on liquids I passed out 2 times, went 911 to ER the 1st time everything was normal except my blood pressure was wacky standing, sitting and lying down. I figured it was the lack of food but last week it happened again! I was out of the house and on the go for about 5 hours without anything to eat but just wanted to see if anyone had any issues with this?? Thanks!!

I had the sleeve done on 1/29, my wife who is a nurse thinks we can go to our local mall in the am to walk. Its cold in NY so it will be heated. But someone brought up the question of all the stomach flus out there right now and by chance catching something. not sure if its a good idea?? Anyone thoughts on this? Thanks!

keep moving, thats the key! if your pain is that bad let your Dr know!!! good luck!

I get that too (3 days post-op) was really bad in the hospital, getting better day by day. My real trouble in the pills, most are chewable but some of the others i have to crush or open as they are too big! Another thing, at first they just cut the big pills, BIG mistake, made them sharp and harder to get down! Crush them if they allow!!

not to mention food! lol

I too am getting in about 40 oz clear liq's also, and takeing about 10 oz in protiens shakes too. One thing I want to ask, while sleeping do you get alot of gas pains? i have noticed that i cant really lay flat for more then about 2 hours and have to get up to walk around a bit, does anyone else notice this?

I was done on Tuesday, was released for hospital yesterday, 1st day home, trying to drink, walk, sleep. just drank a shake for lunch luckly for me I seam to be tolerateing things well, lots of soreness in stomach area(duh) just trying to take one day at a time!

Mines in 3 hours too! Wish I wasn't so nervous!! But I guess that normal! Good luck everyone! Talk in a few days!!

Mines tomorrow too!! I wish I found this site sooner! I know it's all for the better but nerovous neverless!!!
