I had the gastric sleeve surgery a week ago and aside from a little discomfort, I feel great. I thought my stomach wasn't suppose to tolerate anything other than liquids, but I've been able to eat apple sauce, Greek yogurt and a very thick egg and Tomato sauce puree. Is that normal? I don't feel sick after eating. I don't feel pressure. And while I shouldn't be complaining, I have this underlying worry some feeling. Is it normal? Everyone I spoke to was sick and nauseous and had no appetite for at least 2 weeks post surgery. But I am non of those things. Why am I not feeling any different??
It took me a week post op for the pain to be tolerable. When I wore a binder that helped a ton with pain. I took anti-nausea meds that helped some. Hang in there and walk and rest, get your fluids in. You got this!
