Had surgery yesterday!



Recommended Posts

I had surgery yesterday at 3 in the afternoon with dr. Ramos Kelly in TJ Mexico. He is amazing and his nurses are great too. However the language barrier is an issue with the nurses. I have never posted on here but I've been reading books worth of post on this site. And I figured since now I was sleeved, I should. The pain is terrible. I cry and scream with how bad it hurts, I know other people said the opposite but idk shy mine is so horrible. I tried to walk but I throw up when I walk. Pray for me please that this horrible pain will go away. Oh, and I am only 19.

I was sleeved 6/25 and the pain was bad for me too . Hang in there, day 2 is much better! Ask for nausea medicine.

I had surgery Monday and there is pain but I am glad it is not worse. Dr. Wegner and the staff were awesome.

Hang in there. It gets better. The first night I was home I thought I was going to die from pain but the next day it was like a miracle n it all went away. I only spent one night at the hospital, which was the day of my surgery.

How did y'all deal with getting up and down to not feel like you are straining your stomach? Thank you for all the support :) I already feel a little better this morning.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
