This is all very surreal. After my procedure I remember being in the recovery room coming out of anesthesia in so much pain. I was trying to get the nurses attention. It was like torture haha. Eventually they brought me to my room. Everything is hazy after that. Everything but the stomach pains of course. The IV narcotic drugs put me out and really took the pain away. Walking was hard at first. I swore I was going to break something but you have to walk as much as possible after procedure. Helps pass the gas. It took me so long to pass gas out the back end! But it happened. GasX strips are a godsend. Have them on deck.

Anyway. It's 510 AM. Can't sleep because I've been sleeping sooooo much.

Good luck on your sleeve journeys ????

I also had mine 1/18/16. I hated pca pump with dilaudid made me nauseous. The sent me home on norco I just cut them in half. I only have pain in 1 spot on my belly left side like a intense burning. Anyone else having that? I am still getting left shoulder pain from gas, gas x strips and a heating pad help. I am now 10 days post op and 10# down since surgery. Good luck!!

I did. They said it was acid reflux. Call your doctor.
