Sleeved two days ago



Recommended Posts

Still feel like I can't get much down and feel every swallow go into my stomach. Does this go away? Oh and everything tastes gross and makes me feel nauseated. How were you at two days out ?

It'll pass soon as the swelling goes down. Just sip all day and follow your Drs plan.

Everything you described is normal. The first week or two is hard, you just had major surgery,

They shoved a tube down your throat that's why swallowing everything hurts, and cut burned stabled and sewed your stomach back together that's why you feel sick to your stomach.

It gets better! But yes it takes time.

Hang in there.

Agreed, the first few days are pretty intense. I ate a lot of sugar free popsicles and drank broths. Never got a full popsicle down even...and I actually threw up quite a bit the first two or so days. I am almost 4 months out now, and I can eat anything without issue =)

Somehow knowing this is normal helps make the first few days easier to deal with, Thanks!

tiny sips! For almost the first week I had my measuring cups lined up and I was sipping them every 10 minutes. IT WAS HARD! :0) After that I kept, and still use, a Water bottle with the oz. measurements on the side.

I have to admit my commitment to getting all my liquids was the threat of hospitalization again due to dehydration.

Sip your tiny sips. OFTEN! I'm about to start my 3rd month and I get dehydrated very easily and it's made worse by the fact that I can't gulp Water without my stomach having serious spasms.

good luck!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
