Underestimated Pain

I was sleeved Monday here I am wed home and so uncomfortable. I have not had pain meds since I have been home due to my sisters lack of productivity. Grrr I'm almost positive I'm not getting enough fluid it and couldn't tell you what full feels like. My aunt (a lapbander) told me if Im not going to the bathroom on a regular basis (which I am) to drink more. I kinda just want to go back to the hospital

    I hope you feel better as well. Hopefully the pain will end soon and the pound shedding and energy will come! Thanks for being real about the pain. I don't want to be surprised later.

AWWWW....I hope you feel better! If you don't feel better soon though, you may need to go back to the hospital. In the meantime, try to get someone to go fill your pain meds!!! That might be just what u need!!! Keep us posted!!

OMG! My pain was so bad for the first week. Not at the surgery site, per se, but gas pain!! Try to get those pain meds, they will make you feel better. After the first week, I felt SO much better. As for the liquids, I carried around a little cup they gave me at the hospital (it only held an ounce) and I put a timer on my phone, every 15 minutes, I filled it up with Isopure Zero and drank an ounce. That's what I did all day. But I'm not going to lie and say that it was easy (especially that first week), but it'll definitely get better. Hang on!
