Sleeved 10/11 HW: 308 SW: 285 CW: 258 GW: 158

I was told no crackers/toast. I’m 4 weeks out and am just now doing soft fish, tuna mostly. And my protein shakes. I can’t tolerate anything other than that.

Hang in there Elizabeth. They will get you fixed up and you'll get to leave soon. ?

@skodes. Good luck! We are here for you!!

@camille88. You sound EXACTLY like the things I experienced. My surgery was on the 11th. My stomach made sounds too and kinda freaked me out. Lol. I think it's pretty normal. I had lots of trouble getting anything down first 6 days and the migraine was awful. I started drinking Propel for the electrolytes and it stopped the headaches. I'm on day 7 and things are actually starting to feel better.

Sleeved 10/11. Everything that goes into my stomach causes cramping so I hare to drink anything. I'm having lots of trouble getting all fluids in. ? I hope it gets better. ?

Mine was on 10/11 and my taste buds are now coming back. Think it was anesthesia for me.

@UncleBreezy. Good info to know. I wish dr office would have explained more of what to expect post op. Glad we have internet to help each other!!

@UncleBreezy. I haven't been drinking much at all. Been too scared to see how my stomach will react. I'll start tomorrow trying to get the fluids down. Ugh. Lol. Hope you are doing well.

Hi Oct 11th surgery pals. How are you all doing? I'm still on pain meds and today started this new cramping that hurts terribly. Not sure if it's gas or constipation!!! Not getting much down either. Maybe my age (59) has this surgery hitting me harder than normal.

October 11th .. I'm hoping to lose.. back pain, knee pain, foot pain, diabetes, and about 20+ meds a day! I'd be so happy.

WoW. So happy a 50+ post came up! I'm 59 and surgery scheduled 10/11/18. Love reading about all of you hero ladies doing so well. Gives me strength to get through this. Thank you!!
