Sorry for late reply. Had surgery 1/13/14 Monday. Was drowsy and Painfree all day. Slept day away.

Yesterday - was horrible. Felt like death. Iv infiltrated. Was dehydrated and became a hard stick. Didn't have iv for hours. No meds! No Pain or nausea meds. Was vomiting bile and mucous continuously. Also hurt abdomen by vomiting. Couldn't keep down ice chips. Finally got 2 ivs by anesthesiologist after several ppl tried - got scopolamine patch and Toradol and zofran etc, felt like 200% better 2 hours later. Had visitors and was even walking by evening. Even could handle ice chips! Totally an isolated incident.

Today cream of wheat and juice. Burping a lot. Probably full after a few spoon Fulls? Have a headache though. Hopefully discharged later. :-)

I made it though! When the surgeon gets here today, I should be released. The nausea yesterday was pretty bad, but much better today.

Glad to see you others made it!

Hi guys...Monday was filled with ups and downs. Came out of surgery in a lot of pain from gas that pain meds couldn't do anything about. Slept then i got gas medicine then I felt better but then the nausea took over like crazy. I was so nauseated I couldn't even speak. Next day felt much better walked around and then I got discharged. At home pain was worst from incisions but now I'm doing better.. Thank God for forts that's all I can say for now. I know that TMI but for future sleevers that's the best advice ever. I hope everyone is doing well and hanging in there...Later

Second day home here....doing well getting in liquids. Everything has that metallic taste from the anesthesia. Hopefully that will be gone soon.

I had some nausea in the hospital too...but just dry heaves. The medicine to help that knocked me out big time.

My whole body aches all over today, but the abdoment doesn't hurt a bit...strange. I'm sure with each passing day we will all feel a lot better.

Congrats 13th sleeves.

I had a two night stay and was discharged this morning.

I dont know mamato2 ....like hazeleyeflgal said everything hurts except my abdoment, that is really weird, cuz even my eyelashes hurt lol but not my belly...

My esophagus was hurting me a lot, like bubbles, gurgling, thight chest, compressed air feeling n not letting the liquid pass down...they gave me some mylanta n im much better now....and about food am not that hungry at all....well my husband just made the best refried beans ever, they smell so good...but I just had some spoon of pineapple jello.

Hope you feel better hun!

Thanks the hunger is gone away I just can't get the chest and abdomen pain to stop I guess it's suspected!!!

No hunger but one side of my stomach hurts like hell : ( ... Can't wait until all this go away

My rear end still hurts a lot...can't figure out why that is....still no pain from the abdomen. I get to start Protein shakes today. I'm not hungry, but know I have to get in the protein and the Water.

I hope everyone else is on the mend and home relaxing by now.

I was discharged yesterday and doing great. I don't have gas pain but I do have gas. The first night was rough because I was in pain then the next day I had some nausea.

The main thing for all of us to remember is to stay hydrated!!! We don't want to be put back in the hospital on IV for dehyration....sip, sip, sip!!!
