My surgery was Monday the 7th at 10am. I am in so much pain today. They havent taken my jp drain out yet. They stopped my dilaudid pain pump because I was itching like crazy. They gave me liquid tylenol with codeine, I threw it up. Now I just got liquid percocet, it seems to work until I move around. I was just hoping to feel better by tonight, but it doesn't seem to be happening. Thanx for reading my vent.

Sleevers how much time did the surgeon recommend you remain off work

I'm a band to sleeve conversion and just had my surgery on 4/7. Had a rough time in the hospital from nausea, but I'm home now and feeling good. I have a desk job, and honestly I could probably go back to work in Monday if I wanted. I requested 2 weeks so I'm taking them, just to be sure I've got a good eating/drinking routine down before I begin to take my focus away from healing and deal with day to day things like work projects. Your dr. Is your best advisor as to how much time you should take off work based on your overall health and physical activity level. Be sure to talk with him/her.
