Anyone that has had surgery within a week?



Recommended Posts

I had mine on 11th. Only stayed one day since I was doing laps on the floor like a mad woman. Come home, dry heaves from nausea mess so dropped those. Had my first BM this am and feel wrecked. Seems to be step backward but I imagine there are always bumps in the road. How are you feeling today?

Glad to hear everyone is doing good. I had band removed and sleeve done on 10th. I am having a hard time getting the Protein Drink down. Sore some, but feeling better. I had to stay an extra night due to nausea and dry heaves. Taking it day by day

Mine was the 12th. I went home the same day and also started vomiting all they way home and it lasted until the next day. I seem to be feeling worse rather than better. Getting around today I have been a little short of breath and need to sit down. I too am having trouble getting all of my liquids in as it causes bubbles and chest pain. Ready to be 6 months post op and all of this to be a distant memory!!

OMG your story sounds just like mine.same day and I was leaving IV pole wheel skid marks in the hallway..lol. and when I got home.. WAP! Worked the kinks out and now doing laps in my yard! Only wish I could have a bm already! Feel pretty good other than that and discomfort in sleeve. Hope it all continues to go well for you!

Gas x helped me with the bubbles. I'm so sorry it still hurts:(

I had mine 11/9 and have been doing pretty good, each day gets better. The first couple days I had a headache but it's been ok since then. I am finding that it's a struggle to get my Protein and liquids in (my doc wants 90 ounces liquid and 90 grams of protein)

Definitely not worse than a c-section but if you remember how it felt when you would stand up from the sitting or laying position it sorta feels like that for a few days because of your incisions ????

I'm having this same issue. Apparently I was supposed to wait before starting my Vitamins. I started mine the next day. I wish my info was more clear cut.

Had mine the 11th. My biggest issue is getting everything sorted out like Vitamins and shakes and when I need to be doing what. I am looking for someone to keep in contact with if anyone needs a buddy.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
