    Post op march sleevers

    I was also sleeved on the fourth. I had a lot of nausea in the hospital but it subsided the 2nd day I was home. Wednesday I started developing a rash on my abdomen; doc thinks its from the dermabond. I started steroids today and have to go back in a week for a wound check. My soreness isn't bad. I still feel some pain in my left shoulder. I had 2 doctor appointments today and had to go get my prescription filled but I'm feeling pretty good (aside from the itching). I'm down 18.4 pounds already (though I'm sure most of it is Water weigh) and can already see it in my ankles! They are defined! I can't wait to start hitting the gym! Seeing the scale move is definite motivation to keep going with my liquids and Protein. I'm building up what I drink more and more!!

    Rash on belly

    Doc said mine is definitely an allergic reaction, probably to the dermabond. I am starting low dose steroids today and come back in a week for a wound check.

    Rash on belly

    My rash is above my incisions. My largest incision looks red too though...

    Rash on belly

    I developed a rash yesterday... I was sleeved Monday. Mine has grown across the entire length of my stomach. It itches like hell!! I'm afebrile. I go to the dr tomorrow so we'll see! I've been using Benadryl and cortisone cream without relief... I'm nervous.
  8. I'm sipping on broth w protein now. It's brutal.
  9. The nausea sucks! They almost didn't let me go home because of it. I'm home now though and am happy.
  10. Oh! I only threw up once too lol. I was walking and overdid it. My mouth got super dry and it made me gag... Which made me vomit. It was mostly blood (which freaked me out) but they said that was normal.
  11. How is everyone?! I was up in my room around 1 and started walking at 2p. I had a lot of pressure and discomfort. It has eased up quite a bit. My stomach Itself feels weird. I don't know if I'm nauseated or if it is spasming. I'm holding down about 3 sips of Water at a time. Room temperature goes down way easier than cold, although ice chips help. Oh, and THANK YOU to whoever posted to bring Chapstick! It has been a lifesaver!!! I hope everyone is doing okay! I'd love to hear other's experiences.
