    Was sleeved this morning and the only pain I had was from an air bubble that I had. Other than that I feel great. Good to all the other July sleevers!!!!!

    Welcome to the other side! It's great to hear you are doing so well.

    I was sleeved on the 23rd' date=' i'm feeling pretty good, though tired. I haven't had a lot of gas other than what I'm swallowing.

    I have found that SF popsicles are easier to get down than water today, I have to burp every time I take a sip of water.[/quote']

    I'm finding it hard to do flavored water but I can do cold water rather well. I'm so amazed how we all differ. All the best on your recovery!

    Wonderful you are doing well. I stopped my morphine. It made me so sick. I could not even walk well it had me loopy. Buy I stopped and took off after that. I can do water well everything else hurts. But I'll keep trying.

    Continued success on your journey.

    Yes! They told me it was the morphine giving me nausea. Made me vomit like twice. I didn't walk the first day I was so bad. Then they gave me something else. BOOM! I'm up and at them. Cold drinks are my focus now. I'm glad to read u are doing well as well! Best of luck :)

    My surgery is tomorrow and I have been busy today with cleaning and laundry. I am surprised how calm I am considering the roller coaster ride of emotions I have been on over the last week. God bless and good luck to all who are going through this.

    That was me too. Many blessings and good luck to u as well. I hope everything went fine and as planned!

    Had surgery yesterday. Home today. No pain but gas. It feels like a dream! Been eating broth and sugar free jello. Best thing for gas it chewable gas-x. If anyone has an question I'd be happy to help!
