    March 23 buddies yet?

    Heyyy I just did my revision with a hernia repair and I redid my sleeve instead of bypass. Im finding that my reflux is way worse this time than before. I'm thinking I may have to get the bypass too as well. I really don't want to get another surgery but this burning is not responding to meds. I'm vomiting from it.now. Just all around discomfort.

    Hoarseness

    Hey Sleevers. Anyone still experiencing hoarseness of the throat??? Since my surgery on 4/3 my voice is very hoarse and breathy. How long does this last? I'm scared it may be permanent Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    The first 3 days were the worst for me. Soon after my cravings faded away and my body accepted the protein shakes and was content. After that was a breeze. Hang in there Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    Had my post OP appt today. Got in trouble for not eating food. Only been sipping soup every other day just drinking protein shakes been scared to eat. I was told that as the swelling goes down your stomach will hold slightly more food. I will be having my first meal today. Try drinking water first they say thirst sometimes disguise as hunger Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

  10. I had the spasms as well. I was sleeved on April 3 and the spams have calmed down unless I try to drink too much or too fast. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    Yes. I thought it was because of the pain meds and I figured since I'm no longer taking them I could take a little drive. I'm able to walk pretty good well as good as my energy allows but I dont plan to drive again lesson learned. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I have some pain at the site too. I stopped the meds on day 3 as well. I also can feel my stomach and the little aches from it. Still very sore very tender. I try to just sleep on my back. I woke up a few times on my side. Maybe the that's why. Hope you are feel in ng better. I'm having a bad day first day driving and I guess sitting up so straight wasn't the best made my belly ache more actually actually felt it throbbing hope I'm not damaging it. Gotta remember it's only been 6 days. What a long long week Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I found that walking at whatever pace you can helps the gas tremendously. The walking helped me more than the gas pills. The hospital had me walking every 2 hours from as soon as I woke up until I discharged and I continued to walk around my house. Try it. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I find it hard to finish my drinks as well. I actually drank a full premier protein today. It took me about an hour to do so. I managed 8 oz of water as well. Today is looking better. Hopefully it will continue this way Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I was sleeved April 3. Am I the only one who was immediately put on stage 2 diet the day after surgery? Seems like everyone is on clear liquids except me. I actually havent tried eating anything beyond yogurt since coming home because I'm having a hard time with getting it in. I've only been able to drink 1 full bottle of water on 1 day. Today I'm trying to drink at least one full protein shake and 2 waters throughout the day Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

    April/May 2018 Sleevers!!?

    Hello All. I did my sleeve surgery on April 3 2018. Wasn't as bad as I expected pain wise besides the gas. Omg the gas!!! If I can tell you one thing is as soon as your legs are stable enough after the surgery get up and walk around the hospital otherwise the gas will build up and it hurts like no end. I havent had much of an appetite but I try to drink as much water and at least half a protein shake every day. Although the doctor put me on Stage 2 diet I dont feel my stomach is ready for it. Still difficult to finish a whole bottle of water a day. I'm looking forward to healing and being able to incorporate some form of exercise into my schedule. I'm ready for the results now. Good luck to everyone Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
