mustbeaspeciallady got a reaction from traceybishop1977 in Need a surgery buddy..Sept 26tg
Fantastic to know that everything went great! Each Doctor is different and my plan is strict. Couldn't have any liquids for the first 24hours. I'm glad you can have Fluid and sounds like you get a meal as well. The walking is crucial and superb job at getting out in those halls and walking your into a whole new lifestyle..the gas I have is really bothering me but I have a post surgery appointment on Friday and can't wait to get this drain out of my stomach.

Do keep us posted with how your doing....I know it may be rough for the first few hours, maybe even the first day but just hang in there. The gas can be a major pain and not being able go have anything to drink for the first 24 hours is outrageous. Don't forget to do your breathing exercises...today is day 6 post op and the pain is practically gone but I decided to drink a Breakfast shake, worse decision ever! I'm losing it at every end (tmi)

Hello everyone! I was sleeved on 9/21/17 and wasn't nervous or anxious about anything besides having a drain. I will say the discomfort right out of surgery was about 6 on a scale of 1 to 10 but I took that morphine drip for the ride as if it were my best friend for the first few hours. My doctor and the hospital staff were shocked and impressed at how well I was moving around 6 hours after surgery but I was determined. I encourage you to get up and keep moving. Everyday gets easier!
