Day 1 Post Op

[Rettak64 34]

Well my surgery went well, took 3 hours due to severe scar tissue from a gall bladder surgery in 1992. I have to say that gastric sleeve surgery was much less painful than my C-section or my gall bladder surgery.

Had me up walking in recovery about an hour after surgery. Then walked 1 more time after I was taken to my room.

Walked 2 more times at hospital before I was released to come home.

Was given a small hospital pitcher of ice chips last night. Then was given another one this morning. Was given 1oz of plain Greek yogurt for Breakfast and 1oz of Tomato Soup for lunch. So definitely alot different than I thought food the 1st day after surgery would be. So far so good!

Good to know this went better for you than gallbladder and c section (my own surgical history). I'm not scheduled until July 7 so its comforting to hear your report. From what it sounds like you got to go home pretty quickly.

Was it same day discharge?

Rest up and best wishes on your recovery.

No I was able to go home after staying in hospital for 1 night. Surgery was at 230 on Monday and I was discharged at 200 on Tuesday.
