Sept 3 sleevers?
SOVANNA replied to Wisdom2KnowTheDifference's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I hope I don't gross anyone out so you have been warned!! For the past few days I have had this THICK saliva in my mouth. It is so bad that I have a trash can beside me just so I cant spit it out. I can't swallow as it feels weird going down and I feel full afterwards. Anyone else dealing with this? -

I have been enjoying greek yogurt, and warm tea. I dont feel full but do know when i need to slow down drinking/eating and when i need to wait until "pearl" (my stomach) finishes getting rid of the food she is working on. I have noticed since i have been drinking warm tea ALL day that i actually feel normal. -

@aloudwhisper...i seriously doubt they would allow u to use your own gas meds. My gas pains were so bad, I didnt bother to ask and just pop them in my mouth but made sure they dissolved completely before i swallowed. -

I was sleeved on 9/3. Discharged on 9/5. The only thing i needed out of my bag were, chapstick, gas x strips, tooth brush and toothe paste, scrunchy to keep my hair back, a maxi dress that i wore to the hospital, flip flops and my cell phone with charger! Thats all i used out of my bag. -

Also is anyone experiencing a strange sensation in your stomach after you sip on fluid? I pray that the feeling will be unnoticable in the future! -

I still have the annoying cough. My surgeon said it was becuz they used a tube down my throat and collasped my lung to perform the surgery. It has gotten better each day. -

I had itchness on face and arms. I think it was because of the baf reaction i had to diluated. If i can get all of this gas out of my system, i would feel sore but okay! Im taking small sipes of crystal light but no protein shakes right now. I just want to stay hydrated. -

Hi everyone. My surgery has been moved from 9/10 to 9/3. I am so excited. Oddly, i am not nervous at all. I finally told my mom-again but let her know that i did not want to hear her opinion about decision something i am doing for myself. I can tell she did not approve but she kept her opinion to herself. I am not going to tell anyone else. -

I told 3 people, my boss, my mom, and my son. My boss totally supports me but my mom has been very jugemental about the surgery. She probably thinks i have changed my mind because i dont talk about it. I just dont want to deal with anyones opinion on a decision i have already made for myself. I am wondering if anyone drove themselves home after being discharged? -
