I'm 3 weeks post op today and I am sitting here with my heating pad on my big incision! It bothers me most of the time still but it has not stoped me from returning to work or from my daily walks. I just use the heating pad when I get home and take a couple of tylenol. This too shall pass!

Hi, I am three weeks out today and I still do not feel 100%! I too had an additional surgery, hernia repair and a collapsed lung during my sleeve. I went back to work last Thursday and it takes most of my energy just to get to 5:00pm! I am a type A personality and it drives me nuts not being able to do everything! I am still quite sore on my left side too. I am looking forward to feeling better every day! I can walk for 45 minutes straight now at a pretty brisk pace and that is progress! Just allow yourself to feel how you feel and let your body heal at its own pace. I feel much better today than I did a week ago! We have so much to be greatful for! Good luck and God bless!

Hello Fellow MS Sleevers, I live in New Albany, MS and I had my sleeve done on March 5th 2012 by Dr Michael King in Oxford. I can not praise Dr King, his amazing staff and Baptist Hospital in Oxford MS enough! The care, compassion and professionalism shown to me by EVERYONE involved was beyond my expectations! I highly recommend Dr King for anyone looking for a great experience!

Help! I'm 2 weeks post op today and there is absolutely no way I can get 64 oz of water/water based drinks in a day! Any body else have this problem?

I am 14 days post op and I am still having some pain in my abdominal area. It feels like someone punched me in my stomach between my large incision on the left side and the incision right by my belly button. It was felling better before returning to work last week. I bent over the counter a few times during the course of the day and it put alot of pressure against my stomach and it has been very sore since them. Has antone else experienced this type of pain?

Thank you everyone for your input. It has eased my mind. This forum is wonderful!

I want to buy a sexy dress for Ball Room Dancing. My husband and I took up dance about 7 months ago and I can't wait to look pretty and thin!
