Is anyone having pains in the left side??? My side is hurting and feels like its in a constant cramp.

That is the only problem I have. My doctor tell me the stomach is to the left of the body and a course that is where the work is done. So that made it understandable to me.

If you don't have a tube it maybe gas pains. I know my left side was hurting so bad it felt like a burning sensation so I had to go and receive tardol pain shots (if I spelled it correctly), anyhow, I had to get 4 shots to make the pain go away. I was wondering why this wasn't given besides Lortab, it worked better and didn't make me feel drowsy.

Finishing up my last shift before surgery on Friday morning. I'm suppose to be at the hospital at 5:45 in the morning. I'm excited. Got over the nervousness last week. Now just ready to get it done and move to the losers bench.

I'll be going back in for surgery to remove scar tissue in my intestines Monday morning. They said its a pretty rare complication but they do see it and the fix is a simple surgery.

Thank God I am home. The pillow work out find. Until my husband pulled into Rite Aide to fill my prescriptions. He misjudge the entryway and I had relax the pillow for a bit. I will never let go of my pillow again. "Hurts!!" Now I have to keep track of making shakes, taking meds, when to take walk and make time for walking. With all that said I know that I with the Lord I made the right decision, and would do it again. Slide over make room for me. Praying for all those going into surgery and coming out. Thanks your prays as well. Let's get through this adventure together.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
