I had surgery on April 17, 2013. I won't lie the first week I was sure I was dying! I had a lg hiatel hernia fixed at the same time, and I literally had trouble forcing water down. The pain, weakness, cravings with no hunger were horrible. I even told my best friend and also my father, who were considering surgery, not too. I have within the last week or so gotten to where I can keep fluids easier, and even some baby food. I don't know if I was just one in a million with problems like this. I have only lost 20 pds since surgery, and that is mostly water weight. Having this surgery has actually made my depression worse (I can no longer use comfort food) and I can barely get around without being completely exhausted. I am taking all my supplements and am able to intake around 60 grams of protein/ 40 or so h2o but it isn't helping. I could really use positive words to keep me going right now.

I am 2 days post-op from having the sleeve procedure/ hernia repair. I had mine performed by Dr. Stowers at My Bariatric Solutions in Decatur, TX. The total cost was below 10000. My question is will the pain ever lessen up. I can barely breath and can only sip water and that still cause severve pain. When will this get better!?
