Nj sleevers

I am new to this and am looking for some support going through this rather difficult time. I am 2 wks post op and I am feeling kind of regretful. I know this is a life altering procedure that I thought I was prepared to handle but I can't seem to get rid of the nausea and the discomfort of the knot that sits below my chest even after just sipping water. Any suggestions?

South Jersey here and just one week out! 10/17/17 no nausea no pain just a little sore. Heading back to work tomorrow. Sorry you're having a tough time but I think it will pass! Sip sip sip tiny sips! Also I added a 1/4 cup Apple juice to about a cup of water. Makes it easier for me to drink.


Don't regret it! Take smaller sips, or suck on ice. I was sleeved in December and I had the same problem up to the point where I was in and out of the hospital frequently for dehydration. That stopped about after 7 weeks out. Now I'm almost a year and almost at my goal already.

You'll get through it! No worries. Feel better.
