I just got my approval from insurance and the first available date was May 6th. Was really hoping for April! Seems like I've been waiting forever!!

Today is my first day home, my sleeve was done 2 days ago. I had a lot of nausea in the hospital, but feeling ok now. I'm having a lot of pain on my right side when I lay down or try to get up. It's been hard getting in all of my liquids.

Oh boy, had my surgery 3 days ago and I feel horrible.left side pain, headaches, gas and just discomfort . I hope this gets better quickly. I feel like I've made a terrible mistake.

Any may 19 sleeve on here?

I also has my surgery this week - Wednesday to be exact. I'm having terrible pain on my right side. Not even where my incisions are, but where I imagine my sleeve is. Today I was able to get down one ensure drink and 3 sugar free Popsicles. It's hard to go to the bathroom and wipe and its hard to sit down, get up and lay down. I feel like it's going to be forever until I feel better!!!

It will get better. I was sleeved on May 1st. I slept in the living room chair for over a week! I still have to sleep propped up and can only lay in my left side. The liquids, the protein, and the vitamins your surgeon requires are so important. I always feel better when I'm meeting the goals. As soon as I don't I start to feel bad. It does get better, hang in there. Think of the goal, not the crappy moment you're in. Good luck!!

You guys all sound like me! Last night I FINALLY slept somewhat after having my drain removed, which was driving me nuts. But I still have pain in all my incision sites (especially my belly button!), I have a hard time sleeping, sometimes the liquids go down great and other times every single sip is painful. They say once you hit 8 days, it gets better. Here's hoping! Anyone else getting a little sick of protein/nutritional supplement/juice? Or is it just me? ????

My first reaction was what the heck did I do??? But today I walked in my yard, did 5 minutes of work drank isopure grape ( not bad) and no pain meds. Gas x definitely helped.
