Late December Sleevers?

Anyone scheduled for sleeve in late Dec? Mine is on Dec 26, and I’d love to be in touch with others going through it with me.

Good to hear, happy campers are my favorite kind. As you have started, may you continue and have a Happy and Successful 2019!???

I had my sleeve done on December 26th, 2018. I've been doing really well I think. Only thing that's weird is I get these pains in my stomach when I drink. It's like my stomach tightens up. Anyone have this?? Only drinking water and a protein shake here and there. I dont feel like eating broth.

I am 9 days post op..water had been difficult to drink..broth goes down very well. Water is easier if something else is added in with the water like caffeine free crystal light. Or protein water or decaf tea

I was sleeved on dec 27. My throat hurts like hell and any protein now that I’m home burns going down. The back of my throat is swollen. I’m going to the urgent care tomorrow. Any ideas of what I can do?

That's not good! Maybe it's from the tube being down your throat for surgery. My lip is still numb so that's weird lol. Or you could have a cold too. My mouth was so dry for a couple of days but is good now. I want to start eating something more but dont know when I can do that.

That’s what I think caused it because my throat was fine before the tube. I’m going to the urgent care tomorrow. It’s really bad. My ears hurt too!!

I heard someone else say they used chloraspetic throat spray.

Jaadan79. I know all drs are different. Just reading these threads and reading when people are eating the different stages is SO different from what my dr says.
That being said, have you called your dr about your throat? My dr only wants his office to see his patients the first 4-6 weeks. (With a visit to pcp)

My first post op visit is one week after surgery. I need to call because they do have 24H service and someone could call me back. My doctor’s paperwork they gave me want us to continue postop visits up to 5 years after surgery.
