    Pain at lower right incision

    TrimTrekker replied to holliwood1980's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Sleeved on 12/18. Don't even have a lower right incision. most are left of midline. They didn't cause me much pain or soreness . Had gall bladder removed laparoscopically years ago and I remember that surgery post op being very painful.

    Thanks BLERDgirl, I'm sure you're right about it being a Pavlovian response. I'm now trying to figure out my other cravings.

    I think it's so interesting how we all have different post op requirements. I was told to drink the protein in 3 meal per day increments to achieve 60g. Then consume 64 additional oz of liquid for the hydration. I can't imagine how that s possible without stretching the sleeve and without pain.

    Newly sleeved

    TrimTrekker replied to holliwood1980's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    A body pillow used during pregnancy is great but without one, try sleeping on your side and using a pillow tucked tightly behind your back. It allows you to lean back on the pillow, taking pressure off your midsection all the way around including your back. It feels amazing. Adding the pillow between your legs is also a comfy addition to the support. Again, the body pillow allows for all of that at once.

    I'm hungrier than before the surgery. I want anything, cucumbers,,cheese, juice from an orange, ANYTHING!!

    I'm with you Shannon. I was sleeved 12/18. I'm hungry too. I want everything I see as well. I went to the movies today with my family. I wanted nachos so bad and I didn't even see them.

    Day 2 post op. Will be released tomorrow if I tolerate shake. Can't believe I'm only a little sore. Had a tubal at the same time. With my gall bladder removed laparoscopically, 10 years ago, I was in soooo much pain.

    This is first day I've been nervous about tomorrow. ????

    I'm so nervous about tomorrow. I haven't been nervous until today! I'm having a tubal ligation at the same time but that's not why I'm nervous.
