Was sleeved on 9/23. Not in pain just very sore. How long till I feel normal again?

I'm 15 days out and I don't feel quite normal yet. Your journey is juuuuust beginning. Hell week has begun. Just hang in there.

21 days out today and I'm sore in a different way with the passing time. It's better for sure but "normal?" Not yet, though there are moments I'll forget (then usually bend fast and be quickly reminded)

Thanks for sharing I just can't wait until I can sleep on my side again.

i am 9 days out and can now sleep on my side. Actually did it at 4 or 5 days out. i feel almost 100% but feeling little weak because of liquid diet. 8 lbs down already, so definitely worth reward!

I had my surgery on Monday 9/23-was discharged from the hospital on Weds 9/25. Second day was the worse but gets better everyday . Lots of rest and need to sleep.

It takes about 4 weeks to feel normal. The incision pain is usually gone by then and your energy level will even out. I was done May 1st I am down 92 lbs as of this week. Hang in there you will make it.

Daisy I was sleeved on 9/23as well and was wondering the same thing. These protein shakes are getting harder & harder to digest. Lol

Oh and try laying a small pillow in your side & slowly roll onto it. Sounds weird but kinda rest your belly on it. Its worked for me!!!!

I'm a belly sleeper so it's been difficult... I have bone spurs in my back which press on my sciatic nerve so sleeping on my back isn't comfortable most of the time on my mattress... I can do if in my recliner... That's where I have been sleeping... Last night I tried my bed but had nerve "pain" in my upper thigh so back to the recliner I went... I'm still trying to figure it out... I was sleeved on 9/11!

Sleeved on the 23rd. Very blessed. Can sleep on my side since day one. I know, lucky me! Am meeting all liquid and diet requirements. Though, I am tired of the liquid diet and am heavily mourning food. Mostly because I did not have a pre op diet, so I am literally withdrawing. Otherwise, al is well. As for the pain, not needing any pain meds any more, though I can feel the soreness when I move and stand up. I think I will be much more happy when able to do solid. For now, I have follow everything by the book!

You are so good...wish I could say I was following by the book too. I had one week of liquids pre op and now two more weeks post op. I don't know how I'm going to do it. I can't make myself drink them.uughhhh!!!!

I sleep on my side and this is the only way I can fall asleep.I was also sleeved September 23

I have been sleeved on 9/23rd as well I can sleep on my side as well as my stomach but the issue that I am having is getting the liquids down. I can get about 5 or 6 spoons of broth and then it feels like its rumbling in my stomach and trying to come back up . sometimes its like that and I haven't consumed anything. Has anyone else experience this?

Yes I experience the same thing with the rumbling. Not sure why its happening though.
