I’m 3 months post op and that is the only incision that still bothers me. It’s raised, hard, and slightly sore. Doc told me it may never go away completely, but that it should get better.

I just had mines on 11/8

I was sleeved on the 8th. I did fine on Wed, then Thurs I started having issues. Couldn't keep any thing down, they gave me a nausea shot and it didn't help took a while to find one that did. My stomach is no fool.. it hates me hahaha. I'm doing better after I slept some, and now I'm back to sipping Water. So here's hoping I've turned the corner. Other than that my incision is still a bit sore from there they took my stomach out. I keep ice on it and that helps along with a pain pill.

Surgery on November 2, had minimal pain (the IV helped), Slept for hours post surgery, had to stay an extra day to adjust insulin and medications. I am feeling great, no pain, sipping warm tea, Decaf coffee, and Water all day. Protein Shakes, cottage cheese (small bites at a time)' yogurt. Staying moving as much as I can. This is going well for me. I feel like the weight of the world has lifted off my shoulders. Been a long time coming and prepping, and now it's real. My decision for surgery was for health, with diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis in my hips. My hope for the future is to get mobility back and get healthy.

Hey. I haven't had my sleeve yet (Monday yeah!) But I have had several surgeries/procedures and I assume they put in a tube. My throat is usually sore when I wake up. But they wait until you're asleep to do it so other than the after effect of a sore throat you probably won't even know it.

You've got this. I went in with hay fever and it worked out to my favor. For every cough or sneeze I got some of the gas out. Good luck on Wednesday!

Thank you. I am excited to get past the 14 day liquid diet. I am on day 6, but it is really day 7 because I was in LA for business and did Soup on day 1.

I had the same thing. Very sore and tired. I sleeved on Wednesday the 8th

I am glad you are both feeling better. The bleed must have been scary. It’s my turn in one week, but I have had good luck with surgeries, so I am calm.

Wedge pillow are awesome!!

On it.. Also I found that sugar free popcicles are my friend. A little trick I learned is to have a little bottle sprayer that I spray a little Water in my mouth to wet it and I get to sip the water.

Hello sockigal. Congratulations. I had my sleeve on the 7th. My surgeon told me no weighing in for first two weeks.

I too had mine Nov. 7

I know exactly what you mean. My surgery is this Wednesday and I woke up this morning with a scratchy throats on one side. It's springtime here (Australia) so I am convincing myself it's just a bit of hayfever! I am up to day 11 of the pre-op diet, so there's no stopping me now!

I couldn't make it without GasX chewables

I patted and rubbed my chest like a baby and that seems to help me get the gas pains to go away.

I felt terrible yesterday, I'm feeling better today. and tomorrow I'll feel even better.. so will you.

Welcome to the losers bench...Every day is a new day and one step closer to feeling better!!

I'm soo happy for you. You sound like you're doing really well. I hope to follow in your footsteps. Welcome to the loser's bench!

I had my sleeve on Nov. 3rd. I'm currently a week out and feeling good. Only down a couple of pounds. I know everyone loses at different rates, but it's still kind of disappointing. I'm sure as the weeks go on, it will be a different story. I did drop 20 pounds the month before surgery, which is awesome. Still a little tired. Bored at home for sure. Can't wait until my first post op appointment next week to get clearance to do more stuff.

I'm glad you're feeling better today. So am I. Everyday is going to get better and better.. I know it.
