Hi Nicole, I had my surgery on 5/30 I too have pain where my drain was. I find it difficult to sleep and forget laying on my side! That is NOT happening! I do know it will get better! I'm so sorry you are hurting this bad. I hope you call your doctor today and let him know about your pain levels maybe he can give you stronger meds. Hope you feel better soon!

Hi all I was sleeved on Saturday the 31st at 9:15 in the morning by Dr. Chae. I was definitely nervous going in. The staff were all amazing. I checked out Sunday around 2 pm and I am surprised how well I am doing. Yes I do have pain on my left side and sometimes a burning sensation by the drain. Other than that I'm doing great and I'm excited to keep up with everyone and this journey we are all embarking on.

Thanks y'all. I will walk as much as I can. And thanks for the protein tip! I will definitely keep that in mind.

I just got sleeved yesterday at 9:15 am and it is almost 5 pm on Sunday. I am home recovering. Wowza, my stomach is soooo sore! I keep on having pain on and off in my shoulders and neck. Hopefully, this gets better.:-)
