I was sleeved 12/5/14 and went home the next day. I was in a little pain due to the gas I also had a hital hernia repair. I started walking a couple hours after surgery because the faster I did the faster they could do the swallow test and check for leaks, that way i could have something to drink after that. My mouth was SO dry! My pain was 5-6 out f 10. i had the bad shoulder pain from the gas. I am 4 days post op now. Yesterday I had really bad acid reflux, it about made me cry. I still have it today but no as consistent and not as intense. I have taken rolaids, tums and mylanta which none have helped. what did you take to relieve this?
Also I have this sharp painat times it comes and goes. It's like a burnin sensation but its stays in that one spot, diaginally up left from my belly button. I don't know what it is but it started today.I can barely run my finger over it and it hurts. Anyone know what this is??
How long after surgery did you stop feelling bloated and the swelling of the stomach went away?
Thanks in advance!!
