I had such bad gas pains. All I can say is walk as much as u can. It helps so much

I ended up calling the surgeon as my heart has been beating all over the place. Also I've been very light headed! Well I now just have to keep taking my pluse and temp. If they get high I'm to call him and then go to the hospital!! So I'm now resting on the couch

Well I had a good morning today. But then at lunch time I had some soup (same type I had in hospital) and then I started getting bad pains in the tummy i went for a walk this arvo and feel better but my heart starts beating hard and there is a little pain and then it goes away. I'm going to see how I go in a couple of hours and if I need I'll call my doctor

I got sleeved on Monday too. I had lots of gas pains in hospital and so when i got home on wednesday. But today I feel great!! I'm starting to get more fluids in now which is great. Just keep thinking about the end!! I've been told puree stage is lots better. So just hang in there

Hi I was sleeved on Monday!! All went well and am trying very hard to get all the Fluid down lol. I have to say walking does help with the gas pains!!

Thanks everyone for ur answers. Well today was alot better with my meals and Fluid. I had a shake for Breakfast and had 150mls in 1.5hrs. Also 1/2cup V8 veg/fruit juice. I just had 150ml of my shake for dinner but only took 1hr. Also have been sipping on my Water and been having my panadol. I'm feeling better today. But gees it's hard to get everything down!!! Lol. It feels like I've been eating/drinking all day lol

Evening everyone, I have a question! When should ur bowels start working post op? Sorry if it's TMI

I just got sleeved 3 days ago. I've been having these pains too but not too bad. My doctor said it's gas and it will go away like the other people have said. Just try and keep up ur fluid intake

Hi everyone!!!! Well I came home at 1.30 today. I had a great sleep and have been slowly eating some custard and feeling good. Just learning to eat slowly and knowing when to stop. I had a problem the first day with one of the meds so after my blood pressure spiked the second time they stopped it. I'm just feeling bruised now. The gas pains are finally going (thank god) yesterday was real bad with them. But it was only in the tummy/back areas not the shoulder. Anyway I think that's enough from me!! Oh and Go QUEENSLANDER!!!!!!!!

1/2 an hour till I leave for the hospital!!!!! So nervous still!!! My hubby is now staying with me till I go in which is a BIG help to me. Well I'm not allowed phones so I'll catch up with u all in a few days Bec!!!

Hey Kristi!! Thanks so much. I'm getting more nervous and having more freak outs but I'll be fine lol. I'll def keep in touch

Thanks everyone! I'm nervous and excited. I've just got things going through my head like "Am I doing the right thing?" "Will I regret this?" "Will I be ok?" Just stuff like that

Me too!!!!

My day is tomorrow too!!! I'm so feeling the same as u!! We can do it!!!

Mine gave me a booket with info and what to eat for each week from pre-op to weeks 6-8!! Plus I go back to see her 1 1/2 weeks after my op. i'd be asking for more info!!

Can't believe Monday is only 1 1/2 days away!!!! I have to be at the hospital at 6.30am and I'm the 3rd in line!!!!

I'm in Brisbane too and my durgery is on Monday so just 1 day before!!! It's normal to feel like this!! Everyone on here are great and feel free to ask anything u'll be fine!!!

Thanks for the replies. I'll speak to my GP. Well today is day 11 on pre-op and I've now lost 6.4kgs. I'm very shocked with that. So on Monday I'll weight again before I go to the hospital
