I have officially been sleeved

I was sleeved this morning. So far everything has went great. I woke up in moderate pain in the center of chest epigastric area. It was from the gas. My incisions are not sore at all. So far I have took sips of water and ate ice chips with no pain or nausea. The doctor said that everything looks good. I am just peeing my brains out because all the IV fluids. Other then that all is good

Well at least your kidneys are getting a good flush! I am so happy that you are in minimal pain, that gas can be a real bugger. I found that walking really helps. Best of luck to you!

I well remember after they took my urinary catheter out how often I had to get up to pee! Congrats on the surgery!
