Good luck to you! Keep us posted. This will change your life forever!

I work at doctors office and it sounds like hand foot mouth. We see this with all ages.

Sleeved April 10th and I finally feel normal. I love my sleeve.

I am still stuck at 237 people!!!! I wanna be below 200 today!

Nope I had same pain. Ended up taking two weeks off of work. The hernia repair was more painful than my sleeve surg.

Sleeved April 10th no gas pains ever. No real pain due to surg but I was nauseated for a week and the next week I had back pain from the hernia incision. Going back to work Monday. At pre-op app I lost 22 pounds. But am having potty issues. Tried milk of magnesia and nothing happen. Gonna try again tomorrow. I am very tired and miss my diet soda but I hope to lose more weight soon.

My pre op visit they did an X-ray of the sleeve and my intestines. I was full of poo! I was so embrassed but was told it was normal. I was told to get milk of magnesia. So we will see what happens. Hoping I drop a couple pounds.

I am dying for a diet dr. Pepper but I dont want it t jack up my sleeve. I was a 8 soda a day minimum person before surg. Now I can't quench my thirst.

I ended up taking two weeks off from work. I can't bend either if I drop the soap I scream for someone to help me get it. My abdomen and back hurts. I have found it hard to sit straight up for long periods of time.

I tried to go back after one week and my incisions got inflamed and my entire body was sore. I ended up taking two weeks off. I have a desk job, but I have found sitting straight up for long periods hurts my abdomen and back. Some people have gone back sooner but it made me sicker. Had three babies and returned to work the same week. This surg really has got me down. Kim

Nope I am 8 days out for me and I went to work for one day and my incisions got inflamed and irritated and my abdomen hurts if I move to quick or even try to bend. I had a hernia repaired and it hurts the most. I see so many people feeling great going to back to work but that is not the case for me. I am so thirsty I can't quench my thirst. I have tried everything nothing is working! Any tips. I went for post op visit today and they said it is normal.

Dooter what brand of vitiamins did u get? Where did u find them?

I am 6 days out. I am extremely dizzy. It comes and goes. I also break into a sweat couple times an hour. Any advise? I see my surgeon on Wednesday so I will ask him. I can't seem to get anything done cause I am so dizzy.

I am 6 days out today. Eating soups, mushy food and Jello. Hard to drink Water so I am working on increasing my Fluid intake. My staples come out Wednesday and I am glad these incisions itch like heck. Tomorrow will be my first day back at work. Excited but scared. Got all my fluids and soups packed. Have a good night everyone.

Keep us posted!

Better today with the dizziness. How are you?

I think I am dehydrated. Working on increasing my fluids.

Yes I think I am dehydrated I am now trying to drink more liquids....thanks everyone....

Day 6 and I am still dizzy too!

I am here waiting for pre-op. Say a prayer for me.

Had mine last tuesday with Dr.Kim in Dallas Texas.

So how did things turn out?

I have zero pain tolerance. I have not taken any medications for pain at home.
