post ops, what do you wish you had purchased or had at home after surgery?
ShrinkingInSeattle replied to gladglad's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I wished I would've had a claw long gripping tool. I ended up using kitchen tongs when I dropped something. As no bending over. I needed more help than I thought. The gas pain after surgery hurts way more than the incisions. I thought I was going to die. But it goes away by day 3 or so the thing that surprised me. Was when I woke up from surgery. I guess I had expected it would be rough to swallow. I felt the exact same as before surgery. Besides hurting. And when I drank. It isn't hurt or anything. It was weird. Good luck Tom -

FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved
ShrinkingInSeattle replied to DivaNurse's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yes that's me. It was the gas pains. They were awful. I've never hurt like that , landerholm did my surgery. He was awesome. I'm doing good. Down 12 since that day. Stayed the same the last couple days. I'm just tired now. Having two protein shakes and a tiny bit of food takes a whole day to get down. How are you doing ? -
