In between my shoulder blades hurt from the gas but it was not unbearable just an achy feeling

I had surgery on a Thursday went to church on Sunday and work on Monday (desk job)

Surgery was April 2018
Outpatient...no pain meds
Sipped water... drank coffee day after surgery
I feel great! No regrets!!!

Constipation was terrible though.... get you some Colace, Milk of Magnesia and Benefiber!

I had surgery in April 2018. I experienced the stomach gurgles for a while. It does get better.

My surgery was done in Birmingham, AL as an outpatient. After surgery, I spent the night in a nearby hotel and the nurse came by and checked on me and then I saw the doctor the next morning before going home. (Surgery on Thursday returned to work on Monday)
I didn’t have issues with pain and never took any pain medication.
Best decision ever! (Surgery April 2018, down 80lbs)

I had a hysterectomy about a year and a half before gastric sleeve surgery. I am one year out from gastric sleeve surgery and have lost eighty pounds. Twenty more to go to reach my goal!

Be patient. These stalls will happen every so often during your journey. You are doing great!

My doctor let me swallow pills the day after my surgery. I take bp meds, Dexilant and Vitamins. No issues.

You look fantastic!

In a world full of so much negativity and hatred, I have to say thank you to everyone on here for being so kind and encouraging! It amazes me everyday to see such wonderful and encouraging messages from complete strangers! If the world could just figure out it doesn’t take that much to just be nice to each other, things would be so much better! So, thank you to everyone who takes the time to respond to post! This is such a wonderful forum to be a part of! It shows there is good in this crazy and often mean world!
