Hello,

I just had my surgery 3 weeks ago. Everything was going great until last Thursday . I have been in just discomfort that I was re admitted in the hospital . If this common going from good to feeling like crap.. Look for some advice

NewNeequa - where did you have your surgery done and what was the reason for readmission?

I had my surgery this past Wednesday so I'm 5 days post op. I am experiencing that "why did I do this" feeling and I've been feeling hungry the past two days which have me fixated on food & all the junk I'm craving right now (ie. French fries and a burger) .. Have any of you experienced a feeling of hunger a few days after post op like I an right now... I'm in complete torture... I can't wait for the purée stage so I can at least have some squash and mashed potatoes (to curb my starch craving)

I don't know about your dietitian, but mine told me not to eat squash or potatoes.

What hospital was your surgery? Hang in there, new adjustments for your body and mind. It will get better!

I did my surgery at Miriam Hospital in Providence RI, I was the youngest patient to have the sleeve done there (17) and I am really praying things will get better

Do you know why you are vomiting? Is the sleeve leaking???
