I would like to see each other and chat sometime. Not clear on others schedules or place. But San Jose somewhere it sounds like? Let me know if anyone has ideas on how

Hi everyone, has anyone had theses symptoms? I am 8 days post op and they started last night at 8pm. I'm actually in the ER waiting for blood test results.

I initially thought it was due to Constipation but I already had a BM, any ideas or tips?

Hi!! A week ago I was driving to get my surgery!
Today I blended some avocado with Bone Broth and yogurt. It's so delicious! But I was only able to get 1 tablespoon in still learning Sasha's restrictions

Day 6 of Post Op!! My mom left on Saturday night but luckily now I can get out of bed by myself and sit on the toilet with no help! Yesterday was a hard day getting in my liquids (33oz total)
I think Sasha (my sleeve) is not a fan of milk products Bc eating yogurt, cottage cheese, milk muscle or Premier Protein is really hard and it causes a lot of
Burping. Today I've been focusing on zipping some Water every 15mins! As for pain...still present but not debilitating.

I hope all the post-ops are feeling better today! And preops good luck!

Hi there I love in Hayward, but work in San Jose. Had my surgery on 12th, i think we should maybe do a meetup?

Hi everyone, had my surgery on the 12th. Pain comes and goes, I've been burping a lot, focusing on walking and Water intake. My mom is staying with me until tomorrow. I still have trouble getting up from bed and standing up. As for food: water, pedialyte, Bone Broth and chicken broth. Not hungry yet, mainly Bc the pain is all I'm focusing on, currently my pain level is between a 3-6.

Hi everyone, any tips on how you showered the first time after surgery? When did you take off the glue on the incisions?

Once you're asleep, all is well. Just get there. I'm so thankful it is behind me.
I am uncomfortable, but nothing that I can't live with for a while.
It feels good to have that lapland out.
Good Luck, keep us posted

Tentatively scheduled for July 13 pending final insurance approval!

I'm July 12th also!

I had to cancel my surgery

One more day everyone!!!!!! Hope everyone has a relaxing day! And can't wait to hear everyone's update! So excited/scared!

Well, good luck and stay in touch. Your Bio doesn't say much. What part of the country are you located? Are you funny about revealing too much online? I understand and get it. This is my first time ever on one of these types of "bloggy threads"..., not sure what you call it. Anyway, how much weight do you want to loose? Do you have children? All the nosey questions.... LOL!

I know, right! My identical twin 16 year old daughters are just as excited because they have been hearing my rant for a long time! Do you anticipate surgery on Wednesday?
^^

July 12th..., can't come soon enough!!! What a journey this has been and where it's going....!

I was sleeved yesterday with Dr. Ariel Ortiz in Tijuana. I'm amazed at how good I feel. The only thing is that I am extremely tired. Came back to the hotel today and slept most of the day. I will have to force myself to get some broth from the restaurant. I go back to the center tomorrow for the leak test, and then head home on Saturday. I am only planning on taking 3 days off work when I get back. So from surgery start to heading back to work will be one week . Just no heavy lifting, which should not be a problem.

Well I'm in my clinic room with Netflix for the evening, we go back at 7am tomorrow to our hotel.. surgery was surgery, I kind of slept through the whole thing. I didn't wake up in an ICU so I'm assuming in went good. I have been walking the hall lots hoping the gas pain in my abdomen goes away. I've been given ice chips and Water and electrolite water and unfortunately everything that's passed my lips makes my stomach really hurt, hoping that'll pass by the evening. The staff are great, and the other patients in the clinic are so awesome..

I only took 8 (business) days off too. I figured that with two weekend should be enough. I only was off 3 days after my hysterectomy and I'm figuring this may be similar? But I did fill out my short-term disability in case there was any complications. But my doctor told me most people feel pretty good after a week. But everybody's different and have different pain tolerances.
