Did anyone have a catheter? I really, really don't want one of those. After my c-section, I had one in for almost 2 days. Just thinking about it is like nails on a chalkboard.
No catheter, at least I didn't...

Feb 6th sleever here. I'm going home today at 2. I actually feel really good not even taking pain meds anymore.. Just afraid of them taking the drain out. I hope it doesn't hurt
I am the same way, nervous about the drain removal on Tuesday and my sleeve was on the 5th...

My surgery was this past Tuesday, and I only had 3 days Clear Liquids before the surgery. No pain meds since 4am Wednesday morning. Not in any pain, but I have some tenderness where the drain tube is, but that is because my asthma is acting up and I have been coughing, been holding a pillow close to me and that helps. I didn't get the gas pains this time, PRAISE GOD. Starting Saturday I can go to full liquids (runny oatmeal, cream of wheat, soup) Tuesday I go back to the dr and have the drain removed that part scares me... I had a NG tube for the first 24hrs, it's suppose to help with nausea, that wasn't so bad removing. I was told that I can't lift anything heavier than a gallon of milk.. So far so good, praying it stays this way... Wishing everyone the best!!

February Sleevers
in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Posted
My dr here in Dallas is Clear Liquids three days before and after surgery.
Then it's full liquids (applesauce, yogurt, oatmeal (kinda runny) cream of wheat, creamed soups) anything that does't need to be chewed (this is for 5 weeks)
I have done everything to get to this point whats a couple more weeks, I can do it.. I know you can... I chewed a piece of gum, or my chewable Calcium and Vitamins, so I feel like I am chewing something.. Just don't swallow the gum, that wouldn't be good at all..
