Things I now know

wow, I was sleeved on Aug 15th and i have experienced all of the above. My wife was wondering why I was coming out of the bathroom with underwear in my hands and fresh ones on. I said dont even ask, and she says "I didnt sign up for that part of it" lol. It takes a hell of a man to admit he sharted on himself and even a bigger one to use tide lol

Right on the money! This is the best thread ever agreed! It does take a big man or woman to admit yeah I am changing my underwear again!!!!!! So what! Sneezing should not be trusted either! And my clear tape over my infusions are driving me nuts with itching! I can't wait until tomorrow when they come off.

However, on Saturday after letting this run its course and many undie changes later, my husband picked up some liquid immodium ,.and I take a half dose of two teaspoons in the morning and it has calmed down to just one or two times a day and I don't have that sicky irritated bowel feeling anymore! Happy days are here again!

My shoulder pain is gone, and with the sharts cured, I feel great again!

Oh, this darn smart typing! I meant to say the clear tape over my incisions, not infusions! They are itching me to death! Can't wait until tomorrow to get those suckers off!

I am in a constant state of butt pucker. I come home at lunch so I can sit back and relax on the terlet in peace!

I'm 8 days out now and I only go 2-3 times a day, but when I go there's a lot of thunder and very little lightnin!

One more thing I now know that NOBODY warned me about be careful of your cats! My two were thrilled to have me back and one of them immediately jumped on my tummy! Ouch!

Yep, same for dogs too! Especially when they insist on sniffing your incision - ouch!

I am 3 1/2 weeks out and I am rolling on the floor laughing at this thread. I had all of the above issues. Leave your inhibitions at the hospital because you will do things you never thought you would before the surgery. I will tell a little story now.....after surgery later that night I had gotten up to go to the bathroom. The sharts had already started. I went to the bathroom, did my business, got up and had to prop one foot up on the toilet to wipe because those nasty catchers were in the toilet and I couldn't reach. Well, I had to take one leg out of my undergarments. After I went for a small walk down the hall I came back into my room and realized I had just walked down the hall with my undies around the ankle of one of my legs. I looked down and noticed that I had a small little bit of shart on my undies also. I took those things off and buried them in the trash. I was mortified......so I stayed in my room for several hours after that.....too ashamed to go back in the hall. The only reason I went back out there is because I was forced to by Nurse Cratchet!! Just thought I would share my horror story!

Ohhh NO! I laughed so hard I had to hold my incision! I can just picture myself walking around the hospital smiling at everyone with huge sharted granny panties around my ankle!

Poor little Hello Kitty on my drawers will never be the same.

OMG i am so pissing myself laughing right now these threads are too funny! Thank you so much i agree best thread EVER!

Fortunately i didn't experience any of the sharts but granted i had a colonic irrigation 2 days before surgery so that might have helped

A heat pad really helps in the first few days to ease the gas pain
