I've seen many post with people sharing the same surgery date chatting. Love the idea and hope to get one going for our date;0)

Oh no' date=' sorry to hear. If it makes you feel better, ive had dry heaves so bad I was groaning. Day 2 is not good right now. Thank good I haven't haf anythibg to drink.[/quote']

Lol!! It doesn't make me feel better, that's awful.

Hang in there...NOTHING worth having comes easy.

I got up and walked. It helped. I brushed my hair first since I look and probably smell like something else. My gas pains have kicked in. You me might see mec wandering the halls. Sorry they couldn't get it done for you this time. But I am sure they will find a way!

Glad to hear so many good stories. I'm feeling better this morning. Couple of bouts of nausea but only one actual dry heaves. Have had a small gas bubble in my chest but everything else is fine.

Melinda1, I am so sorry to hear about this. I had plenty of things prior, bad EKG and elevated white blood cell count for no reason. Keep in touch and let us know what the decision is.

I just passed my leak test and I have been sipping broth, eating Jello and sipping water. I couldn't eat the Popsicle it made me sick. I feel pretty good I have also been walking every 6 hours. Gas pain is minimal and the hospital staff are wonderful and I also have a very nice 70 year old roommate. I am blessed.

I am on my second day post op. had my leak test and all is perfect. Been sipping and walking. Nurses say day #2 is always the worst. Can't wait to get onto day 3!

My neighbor and I have had moments of groaning duets, so day 2 does seem a big PITA. Not to mention my nurse didnt understand that I wasnt hitting the dillaudid button bcuz it was giving me some serious nausea. I finally got some other pain meds so its been sorted.

The stomach gas is killing me. Im staying another night so I'm hoping tomorrow will be better.

Hope everyone is sipping and feeling good.

Had my surgery 7:30 Monday morning. Discharged yesterday evening. Had a pretty rough first night at home with nausea and dry heaving. My abdomen is very, very sore from that. :-(( Trying to get my fluids in this morning and walking as much as possible. Praying it does get easier with each day that passes. Hope all if the other March 18 people are doing well!

I had my surgery Monday at 8am and was discharged yesterday afternoon. Have to say, last night was the worst pain ever! Gas pains are just awful. ((

I hope everyone 's been able to rest and sip!

Finally home from Mondays surgery. Had a few crying spells and can't get comfy at all. My hubby is suppose to have same surgery in 4 months and I begged him not to. Everyone said the liquid diet is the worst. That is bullshit. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Maybe in a few more days I will feel better about all of it.

My surgery was Monday at 1230. Quite a bit if nausea and dry heaving yesterday. Probably the pain meds. Home since about 9 pm last night. Not having much trouble getting the fluids down. Feeling better all the time. Happy to be on the sleeved side.

Had my surgery on Monday - came home today. Feeling the gas pains and slight uncomfortableness when I drink any fluid which the doc said is normal. Other then the has pains I'm feeling good - had a shower today that felt great too!

My surgery was around 1:30 Monday. I was home by 1100 today. Yesterday was not a great day but I'm feeling pretty good today. I just took a half dose of pain meds but otherwise have been pain free. I ended up having a hiatal hernia that didnt show up in the endoscopy. That has been what has been the most painful. I have found that drinking goes better when I stand up. I'm sure I looked funny eating my "lunch" of chicken broth and snapple standing up but I had too much gas pain in my upper abdomen so sitting just hurt.

I'm glad to hear everyones story and wish you guys a speedy recovery.

Came home today was discharged at 5:00. My nurses told the Bariatric docs that they should hire me as a patient advocate because they were very impressed with my recovery, all I did was follow the advice of those who have gone before me. They said that I should be the poster child for this surgery. I feel very fortunate to have had such an easy time so far and I hope that it continues. All my fellow sleevers who are having a rough time you are in my prayers.

So sorry Melinda1, hope you are able to try this again. Are they going to send you to see a cardiologist? My sleeve went well so far. I am tender and sore but doing what I have to do. Walk, walk, walk~

How is everyone doing?
