I has vsg on the 1st of October. Mine was in and out. I was home the same day. I wouldn't say it's painful, just mostly soreness. The gas pain was the most pain. But just remember to walk, walk, walk. And sip water. You can do this Best wishes to you on your journey.

I'm 5 days post op. Chapstick is a must. Take a pillow for the drive home. I went home the same day and it was a big help. Gas X tongue strip helped also. Everyone is right, walk, walk, walk, sip, sip, sip. Sugar free Popsicles have been great for me as well. Isopure grape is good. I just ad a little of grape crystal light and it's not that bad. Hot caffine free tea is good too, I find it helps clear my throat and little bit of mucus in the morning. Well wishes to you on this journey!
