I was sleeved on 9/16. The surgery went well and although diagnosis in 09 with a hiatel hernia he found no evidence of it. My sugar went up to 191 and potassium too low. Due to the extreme gas pain and being taken off the med pump, I did not take in enough liquids today on my own, so one more day in the hospital. I am sure I will feel better tomorrow. I have been walking, but need to do more. The gas and right side pain is the worse!

Congrats....walking does truly help. Hope you have a speedy recovery!!

The gas is hard for the first few days but its normal with any laparoscopic surgery. You have a positive attitude and that helps a lot!

I do understand the issue with the gas. I did walk in the hospital but once I got home I used gas-x strips along with walking and it helped so much. It will get so much better. 3 weeks out.

That is good to know. I expected the gas pain, but I forgot how painful it can get. My incisions on my right side is very painful, but the rest are fine.
