Any December 30th Sleevers ?!



Recommended Posts

Newly sleeved December 30th. When can I expect this large incision on right side to stop being so painful? I can hardly stand up straight. Expecting to be back at work in a week, but I don't know. I am a nurse and work at a desk daily with no heavy lifting.

Hi all. I am just shy of four weeks out. My surgery was on December 9. I had some issues with one incision but on the left side. They told me to expect pain there since that's where they remove the stomach from however I probably should've called the doctor sooner. They ended up having to re-cut open the wound clean it out. so if you are in a lot of pain around a wound I recommend having the dr or nurse look at it. Mine ended opening up and started bleeding that ended up being a good thing because it prompted me to go in and have him look at it they caught it just before an infection was just about to start. it's an open wound now but definitely healing.

My largest surgical site is on my right side. I have 4 smaller incisions that do not bother me at all. Do not have a temp at this time, but I do believe I will get it looked at. Better safe than sorry. Thanks

I am having the same problem with that one incision. It's the only one that hurts. I go to the doc on Jan 12. I'm gonna give it a few more days to see if it ease up.

5 days out I am feeling much better. Each day I feel a tad better. The large incision feels like a I have a peach rolling around in there. Sore but better. I hope the rest of you are feeling a little better. The shakes are challenging. The pureed stage will be here before you know it some of you sooner than me. One of the first things I want to make it the ricotta bake :P So in the mean time take it easy and heal. Happy Sunday!!

I am finding that the Ready-Made Protein Shakes that I was drinking Pre-Surgery are now too thick and sweet for me. So I have been adding a little Skim Milk to them, and they are easier now to get down.

I am 5 days post op and I am still sore when I move especially around the large incision where they removed my stomach . I don't have nausea and I am tolerating liquids pretty well . Hows everyone else doing ?

Your incisions are healing nicely. I have 5 incisions; 4 tiny ones and one that is about an inch long. The larger one is the one everyone is talking about. By looking at yours, it might be the one at your belly button?

      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.
