Im 27yr old male due to be sleeved October 5th of this year. Can anyone tell me how much pain they experienced from surgery.

I had surgery Oct 3rd, woke up with a lot of abdominal discomfort from the gas. Today some gas pain but nothing like yesterday. Good luck , remember everyone wakes up with something different , I pray you will have smooth recovery

Yes, there are lots of groups on Facebook for VSG....but most of them are secret, so you have to search for them and ask for permission to join

Hello everyone, I have started my journey Aug 22 and now I officially have a surgery dATE which is Oct 18. I am excited,nervous and scared at the same time, the one thing that scare the crap out of me. Is reading about gallbladder attacks after having the surgery, Idk if I should ask to just remove it or should I just wait, my appointment to sign the consent form is Oct 9, I'll just ask I'm sure he will ease my mind

Last night I start to get pains all over my body. It's hard to describe, its like muscle spasms all over. I can't sit up or ill feel like my muscles are being pulled In opposite directions. I sat completely up and was nauseous so I laid back down. I'm so weak I keep moving from side to side, I went to sleep for like 30 min got up to throbbing In my arms and legs and I'm freezing. The heat is on 85 and I'm just hurting. I'm 10 days out has anyone else had this feeling.
