3 days post op....(Sleeved on Monday the 17th)



Recommended Posts

Yesterday (day 2) was actually harder than day 1 post op. My throat was so sore and my chest felt tight. Today I woke up feeling better and I have actually tried two foods: 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt with Breakfast and 1/3 cup cream of Tomato Soup. My incisions are bothering me a little more, but overall, I feel so much better. Hoping the all the others sleeved on Monday are starting to feel a little better, too. I realize I have a long way to get to my Protein goal, but at least I am on my way now.

I lost 20 lbs before surgery...7 of those pounds came off during the three day clear liquid diet. I am not getting on a scale until I see my doc at the 2-week post op check up. Just didn't 't want anyone to think I lost 20 lbs 3 days after surgery.

I too was sleeved on Monday. This afternoon I really started to feel better - could tolerate Water and able to eat yogurt for lunch. Things must be looking up! I think being at home helps a lot, too.

I agree! That clear liquid diet was painful in its own way. At least now we can have things with milk, etc.

I didn't realize the chest pain was gas. I thought it was connected to my horribly swallen throat. Everything burned in my throat. It was bad.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
