Hello February Sleevers! I was just sleeved on Monday, 2/11. I have some pain but my Tylenol 3 seems to handle it fine. Looking forward to keeping in touch with you all.

Did anyone have a morphine pca?

I did and it made me very sick. Within minutes I would be trying to vomit. They switched it out with something else and I had no issues.

I had the morphine pca and made me nauseas something terrible. They took me off of that and put me on IV Tylenol and IV ibuprofen (this NSAID was okay because it wasn't going through my stomach), and they did the job. That said, I really never experienced much pain. I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am for that!

It was ok. I didnt use it much. I too had tylenol and it was great. I used the morphine to sleep mainly

Just had my first follow up appointment. I've lost 20% of my excess weight and I've been cleared for a regular diet. The only stipulation is I have to over chew everything.

It's been good I was sleeved the 4th! I miss some foods can't wait till phase 4 of semi solid foods lol I got tuna waiting for me lol I'm down from 286 to 253 already including the pre liquid diet! So I feel great!!!

Yes emmyjeep2, the pain is from the gas! Walk! Once you pass it you will feel soo much better! Water helps, but ginger tea helped me with the nausea and gas

So I will be at my 1 week post-op appointment in an hour. Curious to see how much I have lost. I am excited to get the stitches out.

Loving hearing how everyone is doing. Those that are not doing so well, it will get better, just take it one day at a time, stay hydrated and get that protein in. Was wondering if you guys would do me a favor right above your name you can rate this topic, would you take a moment to do so, thanks Sleeve Divas and Dudes.........5 days and counting down til my day.......
