So nervous, but not as bad as I thought.. Hope all goes well :-)

Thank you all!!!! My surgery went we so far woke up in pain but thats all under control it comes and goes. I was very nauseous last night not today. I am burping away' date=' but they want me to pass gas, and it is not happening and they refuse to let me take my Gas X. Also any little thing i put in my mouth makes it cramp!![/quote']

They kept bringing me ice Water after surgery. The cold definitely made my stomach not happy. Try room temperature stuff or warm stuff.

I'm glad it went well!!

Congratulations on your new beginning!!

Hello, my surgery was 5/15/13. Reported at 9:30 for surgery but didn't get in until about 2:30. The doctor thought with the revision it should not take more than 3 hrs but it went 6 hours because the lapband had a lot of scar tissue and was cutting off the hole food went through so I guess it wasn't me that failed the lapband. My husband was a wreck as the staff stopped keeping him informed. The first morning my stomach didn't hurt at all then whatever the surgeon put in it to numb it wore off and none of the pain medicines worked for me. I could not bring myself to eat for the first two days so they took me off my drip line to kind of force me to drink. My husband wants me to drink even when I'm sleeping because he doesn't want the drip line back in and he is ready to go home. I have not bounced back so well after this surgery so even though I knew the band was coming out.....not so sure about the sleeve right now but what is done is done and I have to figure out how to make it work. Saw another lady here my age or a little older who just had the sleeve-she seemed to be doing well.

God Bless Prayers

Sending you warm wishes & a speedy recovery.

Yaay! Happy Sleeve day!!
