I was trying to reply to answer a question but I can't seem to figure out how to do that without starting over.

How many days were you in hospital? Were you in or a long time?

The first couple of days i was in pain and thankfully they hooked me up to a PCA pump (patient controlled administration). Every 8 minutes I could press the button without waiting on the nurse. Unfortunately the next day they put me on crushed oral pain pills. I then felt all the pain even from laying on the operating table so long. Once I got home I felt better. Hospital beds are not comfortable. I haven't threw up but have had nausea. I'm going to try the infused water.

Hello all, my name is Carroll and I was newly sleeved July 2nd. I hope some of you can share your experiences with me as we journey together. My biggest fear is that I will stretch my stomach but my nutritionist says there is no way right now because I'm on pureed food for a month. Other than that I feel fine. I am disappointed that I feel hunger and its kinda painful. I also am having a hard time with water. It doesn't taste as good as it used to. Any ideas would be appreciated and I'm happy to share what I know so far also.
