Leaks and strictures
mooreydm replied to missjegga's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on Jan 10th one week form surgery I developed a leak I was taken by ambulance and stayed 5 days in hospital .They did not have to go back in but I could not eat for 2 days and then they put a pic line in .If you have a leak you will know you get the most horrible pains up your shoulders and get very clammy and weak .I turned gray and my blood sugar shot way high and pulse went way low .Good luck to you as of today I still feel kinda crappy after I eat but it is getting better. -

Two days post op...
mooreydm replied to Sdonovan78's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I used a heating pad on my stomach and would hold it when i moved it seemed to work real well.I am 6 days and I just walk and walk it seems to be helping my fluid intake is good and I have hardly any pain .I used a pill cup or a shot glass to sip my fluid intake so I did not go to fast .I sipped a 1 onuce every 15 to 20 minutes and now it is so much better .I did not have a hospital stay at all I satayed the first night at a motel then went back for fluid and then came home . -
