  1. I was sleeved on Tuesday (6/19) and have been home since Thursday and was wondering how long it generally took for everyone's incision pain to decrease? I have four incision's plus the one where the drain was and most seem to feel okay except for the one on my most right. I'm trying to walk as much as possible around the house and I'm using a firm pillow against my stomach when I need to but even the slightest movement causes it hurt like hell! I've already gone through my pain medicine I was sent home with and had to get my doctor to call me in something stronger but I can't get it until tomorrow. If it wasn't for this one awful feeling, I think I'd be doing a heck of a lot better at my recovery!
  2. Hey, everyone! I just wanted to post something for a couple of reasons, one) this website has been super helpful the past few days, teaching me things I didn't even know I had to know, and giving me tips about things I wouldn't have even thought about. two) I just found out a few hours ago what time I have to be at the hospital tomorrow and for the first time since I found about about my date, I actually feel pretty nervous! But that might just be the anxious side of me trying to take over. Either way, good luck to everyone else going in tomorrow!

    Going In Tomorrow At 7Am!

    I had to do mine for two weeks at three shakes a day, and it was really hard! I won't lie and say I didn't slip up here and there, but it was always tiny because anything more than a bite of something I knew I wasn't supposed to be having made me feel guilty but my head was totally more crazy than I thought it would have been but it got a lot easier I think as the days went on! The shakes got a little worse though, I was starting to just get sick of the taste after a few days but I found that adding more or less Water or ice really helped with that. Good luck though! Keep busy! I think if i kept a little more busier than I did it would have been ten million times more easier.
