Sleeved Wednesday July 29th...



Recommended Posts

And feel lousy! Just a general malaise and yucky.....my incisions don't hurt at all and I have just minor twinging when I drink, but my back and neck etc feel like I had a car wreck...I am spending most my time in bed because I'm scared of falling over dog, kid toys etc cause I'm woozy....also thought I'd be constipated but have the opposite.....

Anyone else feel like this? I really thought I'd feel better....

I was sleeved the day before you. It took me a couple of days to recognize nausea and internal pain. Once I started using the post op meds more regularly, I was able to hydrate better and felt better. Hope it gets easier for you.

I was sleeved the 29th too. The neck and other pains finally went away yesterday. I am left with pain when I sip and a million gurgles. And now tonight have pain in the left lower abdomen near my belly button - feels like a sharp burnt pain? What is that?!!! I can not get 64 oz of Water in and barely 1 Protein Shake. So I am w ya.... I feel crappy!

Get out of bed!

I was sleeved on the 29th and I feel great. I made sure to get up and around. I was walking by myself in the hospital the day of surgery. Not a huge amount but enough.

Make sure to take your pain meds on schedule and not too much.

But the big problem is not moving around. If you are just laying in bed you are going to have these issues. You took a huge step doing this surgery and it required strength, show it now and get active. Of course always be safe and follow your doctors advice (which I'm sure was to get up and around).

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
