I had my Aug 4th as well. I get fevers at night. 99.5 - 100.8 was the highest. Does anyone experience this?

Does anyone have any updates? It's been a week for me. Trying to get my protein and fluids in daily. Pain is somewhat better. I always seem to have slight fevers at night. 99.5 - 100.8 was the highest. Very annoying and I have call in to my doctor office, waiting for return call. Down about 17 lbs in a week.

Day 4 post-opt. Everything seems fine so far other than no bowel movement yet. I will give it one more day before calling the doctor. I walked over a mile yesterday and the fluids are staying down. Kind of craving solid foods but not too bad. I think the tv commercials of all the food get to me. Lol. How is everyone doing this morning?

I am doing much better today. The fluids are not backing up on me. I been walking a drink my little cups of water and protein shakes. Only pain I get is on one of the incisions, the pain meds help with that. Last night was tough buy I got through it :-). This is day 2 post - opt for me. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to miss having a nice breakfast in the mornings. How is everyone else doing?

Sleeping on the recliner tonight as the bed was too flat for me at home. The air is still there in my stomach. Running a low grade fever which is annoying. I really hope I feel like some do on here after a few days. Hoping tomorrow is better

I'm sipping the water very slowly. Right now I'm home and nervous because the nurses are not here. Running a slight fever 99.2. Trying to sip on chicken brof at the moment. Mouth is dry and all the air in my stomach bothers me. :-(

My surgery was yesterday and I'm leaving the hospital in a few minutes. I'm having a hard time drinking the water. My stomach is filled with so much air. How did u deal with that?

Burping 1 day after surgery. Is this normal?

I am on my way right now to check in. Somewhat nervous about this experience. How is everyone feeling after surgery? How was night in hospital? Please send updates.

How are you both feeling? My surgery is schedule for Monday, Aug. 4, 2014. Im a 40yr old male, weight is 290lbs. My goal is to get to 195lbs. Now that surgery is right around the corner, Im getting nervous. I know these forums are suppose to help but after reading some post-opt stories, Im not nervous as hell. LOL...Im doing the Protein shakes but not staying at 1000 calories per day before surgery. Thats really tough to do. Please let me know how you are doing.
