Chest/lung pain

I was sleeved on Tue, Jan 22nd. Last night was the first night in my bed at home. Everytime I woke up & took a breath my lungs hurt front & back. Are they sore from that breathing thing the hospital makes you use every hour or from gas? I also have do drink water & protein water all day in 15 min increments. How much fluid could you guys do post op?

I feel you I was sleeved on the 21st I can only drink 6oz of water and 3oz of Jello I'm so scared to drink my Protein shake I vomit the whole time I was in the hospital that's way I'm so scared to drink

The breathing machine they sent home with you, can you suck the ball up. You may have puemonia. Not normal for lungs to hurt. Call dr if this continues.

Yes, I can suck it up to the mark every time. I'm going to really focus on drinking today.

I would call your doc, not normal for the lungs to hurt especially if you can breathe up to the mark...better safe than sorry?

Hope you feel better!

More than likely you are just feeling the gas but thats not anything to play with. I would give the office a call and see what they have to say.
