I am in the hospital as I type this' date=' I was sleeved on 2/20 everything went fine until last week I couldn't eat or drink without having pain and discomfort today I felt extremely weak had slight fever and almost passed out. My doctor told me to come to the ER I'm a bit worried :/.[/quote']

I am sorry you are going through this. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Please keep us posted.

Nurse just came in and asked me if the surgery team came to see me she didnt want to tell me why they are coming to see me. Now I'm really freaking out I'm so scared!!!!

Prayers are with u lexsan, it will be ok.

This is not good!

Don't worry... You'd know if it was a leak and that's the real serious complication. Maybe they may have to stretch it, you will do fine! You're tough! You got through the surgery!

Well' date=' I'm 5 weeks out as of yesterday, and able to transition from soft to solid foods. Last night I had half a slice of very toasted toast with peanut butter. Chewed each bite to an applesauce consistency. It tasted great, but I felt overly full for a couple hours after. Back to soft foods today.

What did you guys begin with when you started solids?

Sleeved 2/28 and went to solids 4/3. You get full faster diffently have to eat really slow and chew. The only problem I had was today and had crunchy peanut butter and now have a stomach ache. I hope I didn't hurt anything.

Thinking of ypu..hope you are ok.

Update - I'm home from the hospital thank God no surgery required. I was severely de hydrated I stopped drinking fluids on Monday I would take little sips here and there but not enough. The reason I wasn't taming down fluids is because it would give me that gurguling sound not good when you are at work. The doctor did a contrast ct and a stomach X-ray everything looks good. He put me back on phase 1 until I feel well enough to eat again. I just can't eat or drink I need to figure something out. He also said as my stomach heals it gets tighter so that is part of what I'm going through he also said try to eat a little piece of something every hour to see if that helps. Ugg this sucks! I was doing great now this. Hope its a temporary thing. I that k God it was not worse.
