symorrah

Go straight to the ER I felt the same way and was severely dehydrated

I'm 2.5 wks post-op and I feel horrible. I have no energy the gas pains are getting worst. All smells are making me nauseous. Matter of fact everything makes me nauseous. I am dry heaving all the time to the point where I am scared to eat. Just two days ago I was fine at my doctors appt. Now I feel like I'm 7 days post-op again. Please tell me someone else has been thru this n does it get better. I want to get back to work already

So I am finally being discharged today after 1 wk in this hospital. I was severely dehydrated and had severe acid reflux. Then they thought I had pancreatitis which was a false alarm my pancreas was really inflammed from me not being to hold anything in my stomach. I have learned my lesson Im going to drink until I cant drink no more. By the way im 4 wks post op and today was the first day I have had pureed food and it actually stayed down so congrats to me on that milestone

I love my IUD!!!! Just means I have to keep making sure its in its right place. No problem for me

Weight before surgery 326 Surgery on 8/14/12 Current weight 295 Goal weight 250

Go to the ER n let them figure it out. Im so happy i didnt argue wit my Doctor. I'm feeling alot better already

Just a lil update I was hospitalized on Saturday Sept 1st for dehydration n severe acid reflux. I was discharged n now I'm back in the the hospital for dehydration. I drank the contrast so they could check for a leak no leak so I am happy about that. My doctor said sometimes something in ur stomach or esophagus gets inflamed which causes you not to be able to hold anything down. I am 3 weeks post op i havent even had mushies yet. Liquids cant even stay down.But some ice cold apple juice sure taste good lol. Anyway i cant leave the hospital till I'm able to keep my liquids down sucks to be me i guess

I spoke wit my doctor she prescribed me some tabs for nausea which has worked so far. My gas have subsided a lil but i still feel weak. My doc told me to drink Gatorade to keep hydrated

HW 333 SW 326 Cw 303 Sleeved on 8/14/12 Down 23lbs already

Im two weeks post op n I wish I could chug too. I feel so thirsty all of the time..

Childbirth 33hrs of induced labor n still had a c-section. Staples bust so they had to cut me again n a nurse had to come everyday to pack my wound. Vsg was painful but c-section was way worse

I know I got the sleeve to help me wit weight loss n my bad eating habits. I had my surgery on 8/14 n I swear I am not even worried about weighing myself. My doctor said its going to come of fast at first. My highest weight 327 my pre-op weight 322. I am not interested in the scales at all. Am I crazy cause I can careless about a scale??

I know would be upset about a stall thats why i dont even want to know. I also dont want to have anxiety about weightloss i just want to feel natural

Before this surgery I never weighed myself only at doctors appointments n most of the time I would refuse. I think it is because I never use to lose lbs I lost inches so it was always frustrating for me in that area. I always thought the scale is not your friend... Lol

@kinnymomX3 I know exactly how u feel I love my son to death he is 5 yrs old n my niece is 12 they argue like cats and dogs. You would think that the 12 yr old would be very mature but NOOOOO not her. I had my surgery on 8/14 I came home to both those kids . I couldnt believe that my sister left me here alone with two kids so soon. I couldnt yell cause I thought my stomach was ripping apart. So I had to call my sons godmother to come get him for the wknd n it worked out well cause my niece helped me all wknd but that first nite I cried because I was overwhelmed n then I was crying cause the pain from crying was unbearable but I couldnt stop crying. Kinnymomx3 it will get better if your 7 yr old wants to help let him help you n try to relax

I felt the same way about protein shakes until my nut said i could use fat free yogurt n as long as the calorie count was low it was ok. So i got the whey protein powder n axelrod fat free yogurt with a lil water n ive been mixing it up every since.

Hi CSweetie I am also new but I have learned alot so far. I wouldnt say I am depressed I am upset at the lack of help I have at home. This is day two at home with a 5 yr old boy so its very draining on top of pain I am also aggravated

No Carol I dont have a drain. I hear after day 4 it gets better n I cant wait lol

Yes that contrast is so nasty n bitter. It had me very nauseous after

You hang in there too. I wish u the best

Lol Jenny that what i do too. Tucking in the covers is a really neat trick!!!

I had my surgery on Tuesday and everything went fine. I had trouble with the gas at first but now im dealing wit it. I drank the contrast in the hospital which made me very nauseous but cleared me for my liquid diet. This is my second day home and i am alot better. Yesterday i was no good i was in pain constantly. Now the pain is bearable i am able to walk around i even had my first BM this morning. I just have one question is it normal to feel like a tight ball when drinking???? Even when i swallow i feel it mostly in my chest then it goes down the rest of the way smoothly

Congrats to you too. I see there is light at the end of this tunnel lol

Thanx I just wanted to make sure it was a normal feeling. That tight ball feeling is the most annoying part of it all. In the hospital I was getting the same feeling n i would get up n walk but that didnt stop it either
