Keeping drinking till you feel like you're going to float away. The oxygen in the water will help your head.

I had to do blood thinners. Thankfully I'm done, because I'm covered in bruises. Today is my first day with protein. So stoked for variety! I've been doing a half dose of pain meds in the morning and a full dose at night -- just enough to stay ahead of it. Today seems better. Hope yours is too!

The good and the bad - 4 weeks post op
I hear you, VeeAurora. I love chugging ice cold water. I'm four days post op and I miss it. Sipping isn't the same. Lol

Surgery sibling! I had the sleeve on Friday. And heck yeah, I was caught of guard by how much it hurts. Today has been a bit better though and it's good to be home. Happy healing to you!

June 2019!!! Surgery Siblings!!!
Sorry tough are frustrated. Have you added exercise? My pre-op required 30 minutes of walking a day. Maybe that would help?

A bit better. I slept much better for sure. Most of my belly is fine. The larger incision on my right is the trouble maker. I'll be happier when it calms down. Thank you for asking.

Same on the questioning. I was doing great until I wasn't. Why did I choose this? I know it will get better. I'm just impatient.

No spasms, but a lot of pulling. Nights are rough. I know it's temporary, but I want to be better now.

I wish I was feeling better. Was pretty fine all day, but tonight is rough. Just waiting for meds to kick back in. I think I waited too long.

What's done is done. No use sweating it. Pick yourself back up and get ready for the "losers' bench." You can do it!
