99.2 low grade temp.
I had a temp of 99.7 after surgery and my doc said it was okay. Just keep using spirometer to prevent pneumonia and keep drinking fluids.

Not really hungry but...
I hear you. It’s tough cooking pasta for my kids....I had sleeve surgery on 7/10 and prior to surgery I was a total pasta-carb addict in general. Very tough to be around “normal” food but eventually we will be able to have nibbles.

Pain at incision sites three weeks out
Hi all. Three weeks out from being sleeved and I am having the worst pain this morning at one of my incision sites. I know it’s only three weeks but was hoping this would start to go away at this point. Did a lot of walking yesterday. Just woke up and in pain. Anyone else get the same thing?

Still difficult to eat meat
I’m 18 days post op and now eating puree. I am allowed tuna and chicken with low fat mayo and other fish. Sometimes I feel like it gets stuck in my stomach but most times it’s okay. I can’t wait to eat a meatball again someday.

Hi there. I have moderate sleep apnea and wear a cpap that was diagnosed during my one sleep study. My only requirement for surgery was that I brought my cpap to hospital. I was sleeved on July 10th. Best of luck to you.
