How goes it today Jasleeve? Feeling any better? What are you doing to occupy your time? I know it isn't any fun feeling so crappy, but staying busy might help take your mind off of how you feel. Are you up and around most days? When do you see the doctor next? Hope it is soon. Talk to him about a Zofran pump if you are still having such nausea problems! It might help significantly. Still praying for you. You are on my heart and in my mind everyday! Take care. Love and Hugs and Prayers!!!

jasleeve, I am slo praying for you. However, I cannot understand why you can't get any help from your doctor who did the surgery or the hospital. That's what they are there for and I would think that doctor should take responsibility.

I used my lortab to sleep also, rest is a good thing for healing, although it sure would be better if you didn't feel so sick :(

Kind of like your body doesn't like the foreign object - rejecting it or something!

Are you eating anything,,if you are,,what is a typical day with food? I know I'm constantly adjusting everything because of my nausea after my leak. I'm still trying to learn how to eat. Loritab is good for pain but it would tear my stomach up. Are you walking? If you rest too much, that will make you feel like crap.

exactly!!!!! its like my stomach is screaming for it to get out. they said they could remove the stent but if its still there, theyd have to put it right back in. if a leak wasnt fatal, id say take it out!!!!

not eating much. maybe a cracker here & there. cant hold anything down. as far as walking, i dont do too much because i havent really been eating. i got sleeved 7 weeks ago & only really ate for 2 of those weeks. week 4&5. i still have 2 weeks left with this stent. a wal from my door to the car is exhausting.

When I'm sedentary,,I'm miserable..stomach all crunched up and I feel crampy and moody and even more tired and restless and it keeps me up all night. If my stomach is empty it feels like nausea but it's hunger..for me anyway. I would take baby steps,,a little is better than none. If you're throwing up anyway,,I would try different things. Warm Soup, ,cold jello...just anything. The crackers are ok but all the carbs could be adding to the nausea too. That would be a normal remedy to help nausea but the sleeve changes everything. I know your stent isn't helping matters any.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
