5 days out and weigh more than day of surgery
nurse16 replied to Mom2-3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved 1/13 down 12lbs from pre surgery weight. In addition to the 8lbs I gained in the hospital. I drove on post-op day 8 (no pain meds involved) I feel like an idiot. I got t-boned and totaled my car. My fault. It sucks. I could have died. I walked a way with stitches, bruises,and cracked ribs. #stubbornlystupid -
Tomorrow I'm 1 week out VSG. I wish I had a lobotomy as well. The Outback commercials are killing me. Wishing I could turn my brain off. I know I need more protein. I could tear up a steak.

I'm hoping to return to work then too. I was sleeved 1/13. I didn't really feel human til today. Now I have head hunger, I think I just want to chew a steak so bad. I had to stay 2 nights in the hospital. -
Low grade fever normal?

If it doesn't respond to Tylenol I would go to the ER. Otherwise wait go to the Dr, tomorrow they can draw labs. I honestly would not call the ER. -
