I had my VSG on Wednesday morning, spent one night in the hospital and then was discharged Thursday in the AM. I'm doing ok, having moments of nausea, cramping and foaming in the mouth like my saliva glands suddenly kicked into overdrive. I'm doing well with getting Water in and started with full liquids today. As many suggested, walking around has helped with gas pains and cramping. I'm hanging in there.

you got this! I think during recovery the initial hospital stay and then the first 4 days post-op are the hardest! if you're in any pain any time don't hesitate to ask for meds! Also having to be in the beds at my hospital hurt mega bad so they were able to give me lidocaine Patches and ALSO the medicine made me big time nauseous every time i took it so just take it slow ♥ you're going to do great

I am currently scheduled for VSG on September 6th. I'm both nervous and excited at the same time.
