Hi. Just curious what was your worst day of pain post-op. I was sleeved yesterday 12/29 and I was sore of course, but day two seems worse like I've been repeatedly gut punched. I know it gets better but I was kinda hoping it would be day by day.

Hi @@Tamiroos,

I'm post-op day 9. I'd say my worst days as far as pain were 2 through 5. I've also been extremely hungry the entire time. Walking really does help. I've been walking 3x a day for about 10-15minutes each time.

Good luck!

About 10days out when the swelling went down, more movement n itching from stitches pulling..had ruptured hernia with surgery so when I thought I felt better..it shot me down a little but keep moving!

I'd say days 2-3. Probably 3 because that was my first full day at home without the glorious IV dropping pain mess into my system. But it really significantly improved every day. Day 10 now and I feel great.

I also got sleeved on 12/29, it's 12/31 at 12:43am here, my first night home. I went to sleep super early because the pain meds made drowsy and I was exhausted from the whole process of spending the night at the hospital! I do miss my pain pump thing they had attached to my stomach.

Honestly it feels like someone took a gun a shot me in the gut. Ugh! Surgery twins OP! Right there with ya!

I got out of bed which was so difficult since my bed is raised, and I had to rush to go pee. Struggling to drink even a fifth of my Propel Water. Took some more pain medicine. Walked around my house a few times to circulate. Tummy still hurts. :S

I also was sleeved 12/29 and came home 12/30. Right as I was leaving the hospital I noticed the pain was getting more intense. I think I stirred it up by getting dressed and all that movement. I asked for another pain pill before leaving. At home I basically sat in the recliner. Thank god I have help because getting up & down hurt bad. Two others I know from our class had theirs a week before and said the pain lessens after day 5.

My neck & back hurt (I'm told it's gas) along with my abdomen, majority of pain on the left side.

I guess we just have to keep at this and it'll pass. Oh boy though does my stomach area hurt.

I was sleeved 12/28 and today actually seems alot more bareable getting up and down and actually being able to wipe properly after using the bathroom... I has spoken to the nurse and they said between day 3 and 6 where the wrose !! Hang in there we are all in this together
