I travelled for my doc's appointment on the 12 th day. (5+5) 10 hrs travelling on same day.

I can see some swelling on my stomach.and slight pain.

Doc said take combiflam liquid and take rest.

can i confirm.. you had your surgery almost 3 years ago and have lost like 20lbs total?? I guess I'm confused by that.. Maybe your stats are wrong or your restriction is wrong.. Just asking how that works...

I had lap band in feb 2011. lost only 6kg. now i have removed it and had the sleeve.on 24th jan 2014. already lost 6,5kg .

A lot of people go from lap to sleeve. My Dr won't even do lap anymore. So I'm glad you did that ..

U might still have some gas from surgery being 10 days ago.. That is very normal.. Walk a lot to get that gas out.. Thats the only way .

where u from

i am from India.

WOW….. Its Snowing here in Boston!!! hahaha

Travelling so far so soon after sleeve may be what's wrong? Hope things improve soon for you! Oh I wish I was near snow! I've never actually seen it before and I'm 30! I'm from Australia so it's mid summer here and super hot!

I had to go for my follow up to remove stitches.where in Australia are you? My daughter is in Melbourne.

I'm in Rockhampton, which is Central Queensland. Did u have ur sleeve laparoscopically? I had no stitches to have removed with mine is all.

Ah India and Australia!!!! I wish!!! Saskatchewan Canada in February and all I can say is BRRRRRRR!!!!! I have taken to wearing slippers to bed since the surgery I"m so cold and the snow and wind isn't helping!!! Enjoy! lol

yes it was laproscopic. but there were stitches.I also had a drain. total 5.6 cuts
