Thanks. I am post op day two. For the most part the nausea has subsided. Not much pain to speak of. The rumbling gas started this morning. I got some much needed sleep last night. But I woke up with heartburn this morning and that was the one thing I was most concerned with because it was terrible with the band. I am taking nexium. I am hoping this works and it may be because I am only on liquids. I hope I can get more liquids in today. Yesterday I did terrible. I may have been lucky if I got in 6oz. I guess its because all the swelling. Hoping for a better day today. I ran low grade fever last night but I know thats expected with surgery. How are you coming along?

Had mine done yesterday, doing ok, trying to walk and sip as much as possible, ready to go home

Yesterday was rough with rumbling. I took magnesium citrate and BOY did that help. I had really bad acid reflux and took the antacid the doc prescribed. Woke up this morning and feel fabulous! I am not having trouble sipping but I am not even trying to deviate from the diet plan. I don't want to test any limits after being so miserable with the band and going to the sleeve

congratulations Sam 3789. The worst is over by day 2 and 3 in my opinion. I was so happy to go home. I hope you are doing great and walk walk walk sip sip sip ????????????

Had mine May 26th Baylor Plano TX. First 2 days were hard, mostly just the gas. Today, 4 days post op, or 5 days if u count operation day, and I feel normal again. So much energy. It is a full time job getting down fluids and protein. Haven't weighed yet, thought I'd save that for first post op appt at dr office. They sent me home with a drain, that has been the biggest pain. Good luck!
