This morning I went to Breakfast with my wife and had 1 scrambled egg and tolerated that well. I tried a few small bites of wheat toast with butter, but stopped when my stomach started to get angry with me. Also did fine with 1/2 a cup of black coffee. All of that was about 3 hours ago and I’m not hungry yet.

Hi December Sleevers!

I was wondering if anyone has burning pain in left incision? 9 days post op.

I have been doing more bending, walking? House chores Not to excess ?

Not sure what to do ? I guess call Dr if it gets worse. No oozing or fever.

Thanks for any help.

You are probably just doing too much. Try to kick back and relax with a heating pad. At that stage post op my incisions were sore too.

I’ll give that a try. Thank you


Mine also was burning, it kind of went away then flared up again at about 2 weeks out, but I'm about 3 1/2 weeks out and its gone now. I switched between ice and a heating pad. Hope it goes away soon!

I never had burning pain, but it was painful every time I moved from whatever position I was in and then the pain would go away. I think burning pain was one of the conditions where I was supposed to call my surgeon’s office.

Yes. Warm beverages are far easier for me and Water with lemon is a bit better than plain water (I use true lemon powder).

Room temperature Water goes down easiest. The Orange Crush flavor packets help sometimes; sometimes I just want plain water.

I’m just starting post op phase 2 in the next few days. I’m so excited for an egg! Haha. Sleeved 12/19/17.

I’m going to an all day conference in a week. I have no idea what will be served for lunch but it’s just pretty much going to be one choice. So, I know I most likely just need to bring my own food. What travels well that I could easily carry around with me and eat for lunch but still feel part of eating lunch with the group?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
