Oh no! Sorry to hear. I hope you start feeling better soon.

Don't be afraid to ask for strong pain meds. If you need them, this is your chance to get hem because the prescriptions they send us home with are not as powerful.

I am SLEEVED! Wow, can't believe it is over and I am home :) I was so,so,so worried before the procedure but I am very fortunate, pain is mild, keeping fluids down, no nausea since I have been out of recovery...so thankful that everything went well...glad to hear most of you are doing well...Christina - I hope you are doing better real soon! I was not afraid to ask for pain meds even if it was to help me sleep better! Dr said to take a walk for as long as I could every two hours and sip, sip, sip.

Had the surgery June 6 also. Dr.Billing in Washington state. Everything is going great...I feel so lucky!

Sleeved June 6. First night pretty rough. Feeling better today. Still some pain but not severe. Burping/hiccuping a lot. Drinking small amts of liquid. Going home tomorrow

I'm still in hospital , nausea and stitch like pains in lower abdomin has been the worst for me. Keeping me in one more day . Drank a cup of tea this morning and felt so good .

I'm still in the hospital too. I was trying to be the "hero" today and not take the stronger pain killers. Not anymore. I'm sooooo mellow now. Hope everyone is feeling better'

Nice to be home. Still some abdominal pain upon moving & still burping. Trying to move around & get plenty of fluids but would much rather sleeeeepp.

I was sleeved June 3rd. I had serious pains with gas but today feeling better and hopeful! I feel. Sorry for those that are hiccuping. Every time in the hospital I did the breathing thing I got them. It was so painful. Thinking of you all!!

So, this is starting my 4th day and I am allowed to go to the bariatric fluids from the clear fluids. I am looking forward to a protein shake and hoping it sits well in my new tummy :) I feel very blessed that everything has gone so smoothly so far. Yesterday I tried to go without pain killers all day but around 7 in the evening I thought that was enough...so I took the liquid percocet and had a good night's sleep. Even was able to go to church today. Hoping everyone else is doing well...

How's everyone doing ? I'm feeling great now and moving really well. Hope everyone is ok

Im good able to sleep better..n walking alot..able to keep protien shakes down good,water is still a lil hard but ive been doing chicken broths and sugar free ice pops..

I'm just ok. Having a but if a hard time with this whole thing. I have to find something to keep me busy but don't have a ton of energy.

Doing pretty good.. Getting a little stronger & more energy each day. No pain med needed since first day after leaving hospital. Honestly just sick & tired of BROTH!!!! Sadly, I'll be glad to drink protein drinks & yogurt (gross!!) -- 2 days left of this clear liquid fun!! Struggle to get required fluids (min 60 oz) each day but trying to drink as much as I can--- down 5 lbs since surgery--

I'm so sick of broth too , Water feels really heavy on its own to drink so I'm struggling with that but on a good note I was a mad caffeine 8-10 cups a day person now I am changing back to tea .
