From my journal today:
Sleeved on 2/14.
Day 5 after surgery: Woke up again with extreme nausea this morning and pain in the center of my chest. I actually did gag and dry heave this morning. Once I was able to get all of my med down, I feel ok after 15-20 min.
The doctor called to check on me this afternoon. He said he thinks the nausea is from the swelling in my stomach and that it's worse in the morning from laying there longer. Tomorrow I am going to try taking my medicine 30 min before I want to get out of the bed. I'm hoping this will ease me into the morning.
I'm getting a little discouraged because I am not losing weight as fast as I expected. I haven't lost anything since I logged weight last.
