Sleeved Nov 2nd 2020. I pooped today! LOL. Small but effective. My incisions are healing nicely. Has anyone else noticed that hot liquids cause less gas and are easier to swallow?

Hi, I got released today. Thank god the nausea has pretty much passed. 3 hour drive home and i'm tender but doing well. I am very much looking forward to sleeping ion my bed with my husband tonight. What kind of pain medication did you guys go home with. They gave me 15 hydromorphone tablets. I took one when I got home and now I am resting comfortably. Funny thing is yesterday I didn't have any pain meds. The drive home must have shook my body up a bit.

I had 2 weeks protein drinks and clear sugar free fluids.

Yes they are... It works for awhile. If I'm talking and moving my head around that will make me nauseated too. {I'm an animated talker} lol

I'm glad you guys are doing well... I'm having a really rough go of it. The nausea is kicking my ass all over the place. On day 1 (the day after surgery) I am supposed to have 30 ml (1oz) every hour. I'm lucky if I get 10ml and even then I end up dry heaving all over the place. The lady I'm sharing the room with said I've gotten her gagging a few times. [emoji17]I'm a terrible neighbour. The nurse says it's ok... It's not abnormal so it should wear off. Fingers crossed for that sooner rather than later. Sent from my SM-G965W using BariatricPal mobile app

There's a lot of good with the sleeve as well...check which surgery is best for you with your doctor. ?

I wanted to get the bypass, but I have RA and there definition times in the future when I will need to take NSAIDS so sleeve was my only real option. From what I hear of done properly it can be just as effective so I have my fingers crossed.

I am packed, Jewellery off, and family contacted. We did all the bloodwork the week before last. I just check in at 11 with Surgery at 1pm. I have been "nesting" for the last 3 weeks so I have a very clean house and have set up some light Christmas projects to do shortly after the surgery. My husband will be working from home so I'm good with that. My 19 year old daughter (my youngest ) took next week off to come and keep me company. I Work with handicapped adults and am off for 6 weeks but I have asked to still do all the administrative work, like monthly financials and such. They will call all the time so I'll feel connected. I'm from the Saskatoon area of Saskatchewan in Canada. Tomorrow we have to drive the 3 hours it takes to get to where the surgery will take place, They do the Surgeries on Mondays and we get discharged on Thursdays as ready as I will ever be and excited beyond belief. I have been on Protein drinks and clear fluids for the last 2 weeks, which was a lot easier than I expected. It was the same when I quit smoking, I got the call to enter the program on a Friday and I quit on Sunday, no issues. I want to know where all this was before I entered the program ...lol Today I was benched, I'm officially on the losers bench!!! [emoji3590] I spent extra time in recovery because my oxygen levels were low. After 3 hours in recover,I went up to my room feeling very nauseated and dry heaving. The pain is at a tolerable level so that is good. I am very happy to have been able to get this done so no complaints for me.[emoji846] How are the rest of you doing?
