I had my sleeve yesterday too. I am having awful pain when I swallow. Is this gas? I have been nauseated too. Any tips? Trying to keep the Water down.

Move. Keep moving. A blood clot is serious and can be fatal. The gas will work itself out and the shoulder/chest pain should go away. Sip,sip,sip, Water.< br>Once the drain is pulled you should feel a little better too.

Me too, I was sleeved the 14th and have problems swallowing Water. Also how long will it take for these incisions to not hurt so bad.

I was sleeved 11/13, discharged 11/14 and i couldn't keep anything down, broth, Water, Protein or medication. Im on day 4, gas has subsided with chewable gas x. Sip the water, never gulp and if you have access to a chik fi la or Sonics, get a bag of ice chips! It will help with water intake and for dry mouth also biotene.

I am doing better sipping warm broth and Water with crystal light to get my 5 ounces an hour. Walking 10 minutes every 2 hours since 6am and Gas X helped. Some liquid Motrin also helped

That is what my NUT said too. She said to measure out 1 ounce of ice chips (they use plastic cups that are 1 ounce each) and just one at a time let them dissolve on your tongue.


Have a great day!

Do the Forest Gump walking version, I walked and I walked and I walked[emoji4].
The more you move the better . I was sleeved on 11/11.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
