4 days post op

I had my sleeve done on March 27, so that makes me 4 days out. I am still having a hard time getting the water down. It hurts when I swallow. I think it might just be air, but I don't know what to do about it, walking around does not help. Anyone else having this problem?

Try GasX and do more walking I had my sleeve 3-4-13 and it's still hard to drink water try a baby slippy cup it's help with the air you take in when drinking...Good luck with your new life!!

Thats normal....Just make sure your sips are very small to prevent taking in air and putting to much in your stomach.....That will change I was sleeved march 12 now can drink about 5 ounces of Water at once. If it continues to hurt call your doc.....Are you taking your acid blocker...NExium or OTC...That might help.

Hang in there it will get better in a few days.
