Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25?



Recommended Posts

Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25? I had my surgery on 6/27. How are you all doing? I'm at the phase of eating mushy foods and tolerating Protein Shakes. Definately a learning process. Down 7ish lbs. Curious about everyone else. Btw Dr wizman was the surgeon at coral springs mc.

Well it feels good to know I'm not alone. I felt depressed for the 1st 2 days, pretty bad, felt like I made a mistake. My outlook has changed since then. This forum has helped a lot by reading and seeing I'm not alone.

Cold liquids cause me to have stomach pains, not sure if pain is a good word, it feels like preop when your super hungry, like a strong grumble.

I can eat but I have to eat slowly, like really slowly. A yogurt can take me 15min.

Had surgery on the 28th I was the last one that day so didn't get up into a room until 9pm. Still at the hospital battling high blood pressure and low potassium. First 2 days were extremely difficult. I am feeling much better like I just got over the surgery hump. I taking liquids fine today I start full liquids. Hoping I will be discharged to day however just woke up to half of my face swollen. Need to figure. Our what that's about. Wishing everyone here a speedy recovery.

Pillows pillows pillows. That's how I did it. My incision is on my right side and that's the side I sleep on. Wasn't able to sleep on that side till day 7 but used a pillow to relive the pressure. I'm nine days out now. Getting better. Sleeved on 6/22/17

I had Gastric Bypass on June 27. I don't have any problems getting fluids down.

My Dr has me drink one oz of Water every fifteen minutes. I look forward to the 1oz of cream of wheat and pudding. I don't think I get hungry it's probably head hunger. I am adding more 1 oz Protein Shake shots today.

My pain is mostly from gas. I hope my surgery worked. It's weird that I am not experiencing what everyone else is.

Is anyone else getting their fluids down no problem?

I had sleeve on 6/27. So far, no issues. Liquids go down easily and I even have some "mind hungry". I was up on the first day and I am taking 3 15-minutes slow walk a day. Still concerned that I will be hungry all the time, as I did not expect it on day 5. But optimist that it will work well.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
