How long after surgery did it take for you to feel comfortable exercising? I feel like I should be doing a little bit more the weather has been awful and not really able to walk outside due to the rain.

What up with that. I have an indentation where my biggest incision is and that's the one that hurts too! I had my sleeve same day as you. -

Thank you. Little sips is no joke it's so little I feel like I'm not getting anything lol! I'm going to keep on trying I'll try sleeping /sitting upright. At this point I'll do anything. I don't want to end up going to the ER for IV fluids:( -
Having a hard time drinking enough!
abettyc posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had the sleeve surgery on Monday the 24th of April. Since then I have had an awful time drinking. I can barely get 20oz down. I get this cramping sensation. I'm kind of frustrated. Any tricks or ideas would be great! -

Thank goodness it goes away! I was not given anything for anti spasm but thank you for the information if it continues I will ask about that on Monday at my appointment with my surgeon. I will try warmer drinks and see if that does the trick. Thanks for ur advise it's a big help! -
Drain tube post sleeve
abettyc replied to klea0215's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I do not have a drain tube however I do have pain in just one incision area. It's bigger than all the others. It's almost impossible for me to stand straight because it tugs and causes a burning/pulling pain. I guess it's pretty normal from what I have read. Since I have been walking slouched over my back is bothering me too! [emoji30] hope the soreness passes for you soon! -
My surgeon cleared me after 2 weeks. I'm guessing every doc is different though. I had the sleeve , not sure if you had the same.
