Newly Sleeved: My night in the ICU
Autumnrain1908 replied to GBFree82's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Wow I am so happy you are feeling better. For those that are afraid, don't be. Her situation was one out of 10k. Most people have a smooth process. I was sleeved August 7th and I had zero complications. I was home walking my dog the next day. Sounds like she had a responsible and awesome surgeon!! Good luck with everything I'm sure you will have an amazing journey from here on out. -
I was sleeved August 7th also! I'm feeling good better than expected. How in the world were you able to get insurance approved so quickly? Did you not have to see a nutritionist and psychologist?

Love the progression photos. You look so good. And just think, you're not even done. -
My doctor said the first 2 weeks we are at risk. I asked him about developing scar tissue over the staples and he said that would be good. It's our body's way of reinforcing everything like brick and mortar. .

I am one day post op and it hurts for me to drink anything. It feels like its burning on the way down and then I immediately get the urge to burp. Is this common? I read a lot about staying hydrated. Does this go away? Any recommendations? I've only had one bottle of water in 24 hours since I've been home and no IV.

2 days post op & feeling like crap
Autumnrain1908 replied to alyshac's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 2 days post op too and I'm having the exact same thing! Everything burns going down and I'm am very gassy. I'm hoping it goes away soon. I'm afraid I'm not getting enough liquids and don't want to be dehydrated. Please keep us updated. I'll say a prayer for us. It's gotta get better. -
One day post op HELP!
Autumnrain1908 replied to Autumnrain1908's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you all. I just started drinking a protein shake and its going down better. I really think its just gas. I get paranoid about dehydration. But I'm just going to sip sip sip all day and pray the pain (gas) away. -

EGD... ugh. Pain after?
Autumnrain1908 replied to MissKatt's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What's an EGD? -
Hey everyone. I'm on day 3 of liquids for my pre-op and I usually workout and run with a group of friends. Is it safe to continue to workout and run? We were supposed to run 4 miles this morning. They don't know what's going on and I don't plan to tell them.

Matildarose. Thank you for organizing our surgery dates. You are awesome!
