question 6 days post op



Recommended Posts

Did anyone have gas right in the middle of their chest that they felt occasionally throughout the day? If I get to big of sip or if I drink to fast this also causes pain in the middle of my chest.

you really need to take smaller sips and then swallow slowly to help with this for now. you will be able to drink faster later on but for now..Be kind to yourself and listen to your body! :)

Hi! I'm 5 days post op and yes, if I accidentally drink too much in one sip, I get gas and a weird feeling. I have to remind myself to sip slow and easy!!!

Good luck!!!

Gas x strips that I bought are peppermint and oh my word it is hard to let that dissolve in my mouth instead of spitting it out. Lol

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
