If you were sleeved Monday wondering how you are doing. I am very sore, cannot take the pain meds. Please share your journey

Hi,

I had mine on Monday afternoon. So far so good. I had no where near the discomfort like I had getting my Gall Bladder out two years ago. Too bad the Doc could not use the same holes. I'm tyring to get used of the taste of the Protein shakes and forcing myself to drink Water regularlly. I feel every swallow. Yesterday, every swallow required a small "burp" for relief, today not so much. Today, I started on the Vitamins and I have allot of energy back.

I also feel ever sip. I can't start full liquids until Monday. Still sore but getting my fluids in via decaf tea and broth. Water well I never liked water. I also have a hard time finding a good position to sleep in. Post op appointment said everything was good. Everyday gets easier.

Hello all!! From hell I swear. Sleeved May 22nd....home now and feeling dehydrated, nausea, and I think I got to full on 4 oz of cranberry juice. Feeling horrible. Walking etc but feeling overly stuffed and bloated

I was sleeved on the 20th. It does get better, just gotta hang in there. Get your rest and soon it will be behind us. Today was my worst day since being home. I hardly drank, nausea was setting in once again and all it did was make me worry that I would end up back in the hospital. Tomorrow is a new day and I pray it's a better one. I hope for all of us feeling this way that tomorrow is much better.

I was sleeved on the 23rd. Just got home today and feel horrible. Feel so dizzy and nauseous. Feel very week and tired Has anyone else felt this way?

Thank you for your words of encouragement. I'm much better after walking some more, napping, and passing gas (sorry tmi). Lastly I had a few tsp of tomato Soup and the pains in my stomach have ceased. I was so worried. You are right thus will get easier!

I was sleeved the 22nd and just woke up from a small nap for the first time feeling pretty good. Hoping its a trend I have been feeling horrible!

Me two! 05/20 I was on pain meds only on Tuesday. I am feeling better, Ive being going walking to the park since I got home and the fluid intake is much better (2 oz every 15 min) 3 "meals" per day. My back, shoulder and incision sites are still sore. Going back to work next Wed

What are your 3 meals a day ?

Tomato soup

Apple sauce or pudding

An Egg (over med) just the yolk with some flavor (hot salsa) lol

I was sleeved may 20 and so far everything is going well except for the gas pain. I also experience a sharp pain on my left side after I drink so that's either gas or my body adjusting cause as soon as I get up its gone.

I was sleeved on may 20. I am doing really good! (thank God) had a very easy time! No pain hardly at all! I only took one pain pill when I left the hospital. The only trouble I am having is drinking enough. I am having I assume are gas pains when I try to drink. But other than that Im doing well. Hope things get better for you!

I was sleeved 21st and have been light headed dizzy and had a small buzzing headache also very nauseous and find eating anything and getting my fluids in a massive struggle. I am however feeling a bit better each day and hope I will be stronger soon, I'm still in bed most of the day!

I was sleeved on may 22. Well I was a revision from vbg to vsg. Doing well in keeping my fluids downs and the meals provided. I can't for the life of me drink the horrible shakes. Omg they are horrible. I like the EAS carb control protein shakes so I will do those when I get home. The worst part for me was having the NG tube for 3 days and now the drainage bulb on my side. But it's all for good reasons. One day at a time. I'll be glad to be out if the recovery stage and seeing some actual weight loss. How long before we seen some down numbers

Hi all!! My name is Christy. I was sleeved on Monday in Miami, fl with Dr. Eddie Gomez. I weighed myself two days ago and I'm already 9lbs down! First 3 days were the worse! Tons of gas and back pain. Sleepless nights because I was just so uncomfortable but I do walk a lot. I am having a problem with the liquid intake and I only had one small bowel movement since. Is this normal? Any tips on sipping? My dr said I'm supposed to drink 1 ounce every 15 minutes. Which is hard for me cuz water and everything else is so brand to me now. I get really anxious, thankfully I'm very strong willed. Went to Costco yesterday and saw a bag of chips and it made me crave the crunch. Does this happen to anyone!?
