The pain right out of surgery for me was like a 7 out of 10. Don't quite remember what was given to me in recovery because I threw up like 5 times but when I got to the room and I told the nurse I needed pain medication it was given to me in my I V every 3 hours I don't really think I needed it I just wanted to sleep lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Don't back out. I was scared I was sleeved March 17 and the morning of I cried all the way up until they gave me something to calm my nerves. The nurses told me most people give the same reaction. I remember when I woke up from surgery thinking IM SO HAPPY I WENT THROUGH WITH IT. Like they say each day gets better. I'm happy I did it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My doctor sent me home with 10 days of Enoxaparin injections. I would have preferred the cuffs. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes.... I'm so comfortable now. I'm taking those and Multivitamins (gummies). My stomach was killing me with bubbling gas and acid. Now I don't take the pain med or the metoclopramide. Don't need it. I sleep through the night with no waking up from stomach pain. Passing gas easily and having bowel movements. (shrugging) I don't know but it works for me. Also I haven't been tired before I HAD to take a nap now I have more energy. However I do bounce back faster then most (knock on wood). Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

All I can say is I'm 7 days post op and I don't know if it was gas or acid in my stomach but I started taking these and my problem has ceased lol I just thought I would share.

I'm hungry too. I'm 7 days post op and I want to chew on something. I was wondering if anyone "cheated" before there time? It's hard to do when you so use to eating. I've been asking people that I personally know that have had the sleeve lap or reroute and all have given me different answers but they are dare Devils lol how ever I can say when they did "cheat" it was very soft food like mash potatoes baby food smashed Beans etc and they are fine. I may cheat lol I'm really thinking about it cause this is torture lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The nurse question the DR about the blood in my vomit and I heard him tell her it was normal and it will go away once my patch kicks in and it did. I probably vomited 5 times in recovery but once I left recovery room and went to my room I was no longer vomiting I just wanted to sleep Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App @@PaulDaniel thank you I'm proud of me too. It's over I'm so happy. I feel great! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved March 17 and I'm so happy it's over. SW 230 CW 230 Height 5' I'm so excited. I have some gas but it's bare able. I'm keeping fluids down I'm drinking 8 oz of clear 8 oz of Protein 2 Popsicles a day. I can't wait to start loosing. Right after surgery I was throwing up blood and all I wanted to do was sleep but by 10 pm that night I was fine. Up and walking and taking sips. Still was a little grogginess that passed the next day. So far not hungry and feeling great. I hope this info help those who are pre op and trying to decide if this is for them. Im so happy I did it. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
