From TOM and Tylenol does NOTHING for me :(

Oh no!! I used to live off midol when I had cramps. Or else aleve would help but that's also out. Hot pad maybe??

I haven't packed yet. Woke up today feeling that things just got real..and since I'm Clear liquids only today, I am hungry. The juice. Powerade and gatorade just are not helping. Going to be a long day I think.

Anyone that gets sleeved, update us when you can!

For real?? The surgeon said it would be way easier than my hysterectomy. 24 hours from right now I will be sleeved as well!

I don't get to try to drink anything until tomorrow. My mouth is soooo dry. It is gross. I have not had any trouble with nausea, but the pain (and not gas pain) is killing me. It feels like she manhandled my inners. It is starting to easy up now, but was pretty bad until about 11PM tonight. I have taken 3 nice walks. I feel pretty good walking, but getting in and out of bed hurts.

I hope everyone is doing well. And good luck to those who have surgery tomorrow (or by my clock, today).

I've had nausea since coming out of surgery, and dry heaving galore. Nurses let me have ice chips last night. Thankful for that.

Today feeling better...but my eyes just aren't able to focus on much.

How are today Bonbon?

How's everyone doing today? Pain is getting worse today, accompanied by nausea.

My sleeve was so swollen that I had to get a steroid shot in the tummy, and they also gave me couple IV shots of the rx ibuprofen. Brought that swelling down enough so I could drink and not wretch.

Getting released today, and can't wait to get to my own beds and to see my kids again.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
