How soon after surgery do you have a bowel movement?
I'm 5 days out and I still haven't had any bowel movement. Gas and burping yes - but no bowel at all should I be worried?
I hope so I started at 300 .. pre-op full liquid diet for 3weeks left me at 280 ... fresh out of surgery im at 272 hopefully this swelling can go away and i shed quicker. OF COURSE IM SORE but not too bad im continuously getting up walking around the house and yard and neighborhood too so hopefully this wasn't a waste
So I had my sleeve done on the 18th.. Just now getting out the hospital and getting home to settle in. Been drinking 3-4 liters of water a day plus some little sorbets and yogurts here and there!
Is there one who can tell me about the swelling and how long it usually lasts? How soon do you see changes in the tummy?
