Im actually sleeved!

Hey everyone! Well, it's official....I was sleeved on Friday march 1st. To be honest, I was not expecting to be in the amount of pain that I am in. I was discharged from the hospital yesterday. The first 36 hours I was needing my pain med, dilaudid, every 2 hours :-( The morphine they tried first wasn't even touching my pain! After the first 36 hours they started me on the liquid lortab. It helps but I'm still in pain. Besides my abdominal pain I have had this horrible back pain. They did some additional blood work to see of I had postop pancreatitis. Thank goodness everything was fine there! Thankfully, I haven't had too much nausea! I'm hanging in there and I know that it will keep getting better day by day!

Congrats! Welcome to the loser's bench!! :)

Congrats!!! I'm only 6 days out and already feeling better. Can't wait to see what another week will do!!

Congrats, I didn't even begin to feel almost normal till 2 weeks out and at 6 weeks is when I really felt like yes I can do this, lol. But everyday is better than the day before.

Congrats I'm 5 days out walked 4 blocks around my home on day 3 can not wait to see what 1 or 2 weeks out will be like.

well congrads on being sleeved and i do believe and no each day will get better for u and honestly cant wait for my turn to come and i can become one of the biggest loser too

Congrats. Sounds like gas pain. I used a heating pad and would place it on my back and on my chest and it helped with the pain. You also want to walk around the house. it helps move that gas out of you.

Hi yes hang in there i was sleeved on 2/27. I never expected to be so painful either, i was actually cry wondering what did i do to myself, but it dose get better. The gas pain is awful just walk walk walk.
