These gas pains in my chest are excruciating! It's making nauseous. I tried to get a hold of my doctor but he is closed on Friday? I really don't want to take any meds without his consent but I'm dying over here! And I've been walking a lot and it doesn't help ( -

Yes I'm still on the pain med but only when I really need it. I usually only have 1 dose a day. It's a very small dose of hydrocodone. I'm trying to drink more so we shall see! Thanks! -

Hello! I was sleeved on the 25th 4 days ago and I had been doing great up until today! Today I woke up very very sore and started having diarrhea! A lot of it and it hurts to be getting up and down so often! Any suggestions? -
I'm experiencing the same gas pains, but I'm also having a lot of crampy pain in my chest and boobs? Is that gas as well?

Okay so I'm now 3 days post op and I've been sleeping in a recliner but my neck and back is killing me! How long before you slept in a bed? And which sleeping positions were most comfortable? Thanks!

Thanks everyone! I will try them!! -
I was sleeved on Monday the 25th! I came out of surgery by 10am and I was walking by 3pm! I am home now and I am having a lot more gas pain! The gas just rumbles around my chest an abdomen but I don't see a BM coming anytime soon, I'm just trying to walk it out! I've read that the first 5-7 days are the hardest so I'm just trying to push through! Stay strong and focused! Just think about 2-3 months down the road!! Hope all is going well for y'all!!

My doctor requires it for all his patients just as a precautionary measure. But it's where you stand in front of a x ray machine and you drink two different drinks and they watch them travel through your body and make sure there is no leak or anything. -

Day 2 post op. I am extremely sore, the box incision on my right side hurts the worst, I'm also having a lot of rumbling and bubbly feeling all through my stomach. It's loud too. It's hurting me more to walk today than it did the day of surgery is that weird? -
Okay so I had surgery yesterday morning and I just got home from the hospital an hr ago, I'm having this bubbly rumbling feeling in my stomach? Is that air? Or what?

what is the best birth control method
jennaleigh1992 replied to Yiraini01's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did not have heavy bleeding! The first time you get your period after insertion it is heavy and last a little longer than normal. But that is normal for the first one! Also you will experience cramping the day that you get it and maybe the day after just because your body is adjusting. My doctor gave me a low dose of pain med. I will say that the little bleeding and cramping is well worth, not taking a pill daily, condoms, pulling out, monthly shots, Patches etc! This might be Tmi but I've had it for about 2 years and my boyfriend and I relied 100% on paragard using no prevention method and I was never a day late! -

jennaleigh1992 replied to Yiraini01's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been on paragard and I love it! It can last for up to ten years, it's inserted once so you don't have to change it out! I chose it cause i can not remember to Take a pill everyday! It's non hormonal so there are no side affects! It works great for me, I hope you find what best fits you! -
I think there should be an age specific singles forum on the site!! So much easier to talk to someone who understands!! I don't mean like an online "dating" site just causal conversations Agreed?!!
