It's all worth it in the end. I'm only two days post op and I am a sissy when it comes to pain but you've got to push through the pain. Me and 2 others had the surgery on Tuesday by the same doctor. I got to go home yesterday because I was up and walking and do things for myself. The other ladies did not want to get up so they had to stay another day. I'm not going to lie it is painful but not unbearable! We can all do this people!

Hi all! I was sleeved 12/20 and I've been doing ok, but 2 out of 3 times when I swallow liquid I get a sharp pain when it hits my stomach. Also when I burp I get horrible chest pain. Does anyone else have this around 6 days post op? Thanks!

Where did I EVER say I want to "load up" on carbs? You've had the sleeve done so you damn well know the most a person can eat 2 weeks post opp is a spoonful or two. No one wants to be on a liquid diet forever. Cut your bs trying to lowkey fat shame people when you should be giving helpful advice like you weren't big as a house at one point. Please.
Your nasty comment was not asked for and no one wants your negative comments on their threads like what's the point of you being on this app? I suggest you becareful with what you say to people online. Be very careful.

I have been messaging her and helping her. Her BP is back down to normal range last time I asked her to check it.
There are many ways to take a BP actually. Wrist, arm, leg, etc.. and with an IUD you usually have irregular bleeding as it is and she is probably used to that if she has had the iud for some time. I told her if her BP goes up again she needs to go to the hospital. She is most likely slightly dehydrated and could attempt to help herself by continuing to drink Water. I'm gonna keep messaging her and making sure she is okay.

I had to jump through many hoops with BCBS. I'm glad you got it worked out. I almost didn't get my surgery because my height on my original med records did not match my Bari doctors records so the BMI was wrong. It was a mess

I was told no carbonated beverages 24 hours before the surgery. So I think you should be fine
