Hello I am 3 days post sleeve and I a not handling liquids well. Ga is building up ad I'm so sorry. Any suggestions on a easier way to deal with the healing process?

So sorry you are feeling this way! Are you having nausea? I had nausea real bad. Also at first you may not handle the liquids as well because everything is still swollen and it just needs time to heal. Small sips my friend and nausea meds, and for the gas, for me I took 2 chewable Gas-X tabs along with a bit of walking; that really helped me. The first week can be a bit rough but it starts to get much much better by week 2; for me days 3 and 4 being the worst. That being said, I did still suffer a bit of nausea and gas pain the second week, just knew how to handle it better. I realized that I needed to take my Vitamin only after I had Soup or something in my stomach; I had given up trying to get the Vitamins down for that 1st week. Hang in there and know you may not get your Fluid goal met right at first, just do the best you can. Hugs

      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!!
