Glad your doing better and happy birthday!! New year and new you!!

Well everyone, I am home now...sore, but alright. I was feeling really good @ 6pm on the very first day, and I was walking and all, then it quickly changed. All of a sudden I was in pain and horribly nauseous. I vomited a total of 3 times between midnight and 8am. Apparently they thought maybe at first I was just sensitive to meds, then they thought morphine was the culprit, so they gave me delotid(sp?) and as soon as that hit my veins I was sick again. They finally pulled me off all narcotics, and gave me toradol(?), which is a strong iv version of ibuprofen, and phenergen(sp?) for the nausea and that finally worked! I wasn't advanced to liquids until 8pm on day two, and that was just sips of water. This morning I started clear liquids and it's been well tolerated. I don't have much pain, just very sore and the occasional gas pressure. They said I could advance to full liquids, but I think I'm going to take it easy for a couple of days. I am very happy to be home tonight and in my own comfy bed.

Thinking of you. Today was a turn around day for me. Feeling much better.

@@dar81 I am good! I wasn't feeling too hot the first 5 days out but I'm much better now. The only thing I can complain about is the big incision. It's just sore and aches from time. How are you doing? Your day is soon!!!!!!

What big incision?? Y ?? All should be inch or less in size.

Hungry headaches and now my five year old is do sick hope I don't get it and he gets better before Tuesday

@@dar81 well it's not big. I just call it the "big" incision because it's the biggest one, where the stomach was pulled out from. I'm really sorry to hear about your son. I hope he gets better ASAP

@@dar81 the hungry headaches really suck but you can do it. Stay positive!

I was sleeved on jan. 13th. First 4 or 5 days are killer with gas pains and such... After that, i felt great. But yes, i keep getting,hunger headaches too..cant wait to be put on normal foods so these headaches go away... But i need to start taking my Vitamins too, i think that will help.. And im not getting all my Protein in bc the thought of a Protein shake makes me gag right now...

Glad everyone is feeling good!!

I'm feeling better, but still not getting the required Fluid intake yet. I think I'm at 30oz. No attempts at Protein yet. I just left a message with the office for a call back. (TMI)I am concerned since I developed diarrhea yesterday, and its continued into today, with my current intake I may get dehydrated, so I wanted to know what they suggest at this point.

I'm glad you are doing well, and thanks for asking!

@ champagne301... It gets better. Sounds like we are going through similar experience.

I called too with similar symptoms. Since subsided but still having trouble getting in fluids but I think today I hit the Protein mark! And I out something on other than a bathrobe. Still no bra!! Lol

Keep me posted on how ure doing. I decided I do no like milk. Protein now mixed with Water. White tea and crystal light also good. Creme of chix Soup is still super delicious.

Ok I don't like to talk about food on here but I just tried a little baked ricotta it kinda hurt...just an fyi

Tuesday is surgery and I'm starving!!!! I feel like I can't swallow another shake or jello or sip of broth!!!! Down 14lbs and no energy and have horrible headaches ????

What are your restrictions? Clear fluids or liquids? There is a difference.

I am having so much trouble reaching my protein goal, that I feel like hungry ???? I can drink water all day but the protein I just can't do anymore. Feeling discouraged, because I can't even tell if it's head hunger or am I really hungry.
