When will the sluggishness subside?

I was sleeved on 10/6, as of today, still so weak and nausea comes and goes. I'm following the post op instructions to a TEE! Any advise or comparable situations out there?

I am also 9weeks out and i still have nausea....lol your stomach has to get use to food again. Use the dissolvable anti-nausea pills you were given after surgery. They should help.

Good luck

I had mines on 10/8/14 and I feel exactly the same way you do. My nutritionist says that's the first phase and the first month is always tough. I keep taking my nausea pill and still take small sips of liquids to digest. We will keep posted our journey. Best wishes.

Each person is different. I am sure that your team told you that it will take time to heal and feel better. It is your stomach that has been altered. And it is your stomach that causes the nausea. I had periods of nausea for over a year. I don't think that will happen to you. Take some Gravol when it is really bad. Be good to yourself while you are healing and know that it will get better, okay. :)

Where do you get Gravol? Never have heard of it

I was sleeved on 10/6 as well. I don't have nausea as much as feeling bloated. I think I drink too much at one time. I'm a little worried that I've stretched my sleeve. I sincerely hope not. I struggle with sipping. Other than that my biggest issue is feeling absolutely exhausted. I really wish my doctor had mentioned that. I did not take LTD. I worked it out to work from home for 3 weeks post surgery. It has been a real struggle. I have a 2 hr nap at lunch everyday and I'm literally propping my head up to get to the end of the day. This week has really sucked because I had one employee on vacation, one sick all week and my boss off Wed - Fri so I had to be at least 3 people at any given moment. ARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!! I can bearly concentrate as it is!!
