What does a drain mean? It's a plastic pump that sucks the fluids out from your insides. I haven't had any issues with my right side incision, But I see some people who have on this site.

I am having the drain out in the morning!! My Dr. does it for all of his patients…I believe besides the collection of extra fluids, its a safety precaution because if the fluids were to turn an unsightly color(greenish)they would spot any infections immediately. It hasn't been to bothersome but I am ready for it to come out!!

I had my surgery a week ago today. I think things are going well…the most annoying thing is the drain that the Dr. left in. Also I have some chest pain that comes and goes. I am chalking it up to gas…it feels like a heaviness, and I am having some back pain on my left side midway down the back. Other then that I am tolerating things well and when I weighed myself this morning I had lost 15 pounds since the morning I checked in for surgery at the hospital. As crazy as this sounds that almost scared me a bit…I didn't expect to lose that much so fast….but I suppose it would be ridiculous to complain about that:) I have pants that fit me now that didn't fit when I left for the hospital! Excited to see what the year brings!!!

Hi what do you mean off by 24 days? As in you were 24 days short of two years? And how many weights did you need to turn in? Thanks and congrats!

I was sleeved on Dec.30…I am down 22 lbs since surgery. I feel pretty great. It is such a great feeling to not be starving all day long. I am starting to crave food but part of it I feel is out of habit. I am feeling so good that sometimes it feels like I didn't have anything done and my instinct is to walk into the kitchen and pop something in my mouth. I hope things continue on this way…I can't wait to see how this goes!!
