Bemabound 11 Posted July 23, 2011 Hi all, I got sleeved on Thurs and home on Fri...went very well, no nasea...they did 4 different leak tests and said that the chances of getting a leak is tiny. No problem with the liquids and pills so far. BUT after getting home I could not pee! So called surgeon and he said it had happened to him too....sometimes after having all the narcoticx your bladder can get lazy so I had to go to ER and get a catheter to have for a couple of days...boo hoo....it makes recovering a lot harder as far as moving around but the drinking is fine....so if you have trouble going in hospital...resolve it there!!!!! Thanks for all the prayers and now Im on the loosers bench! Tracy W. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

readyforachange38 0 Posted July 23, 2011 Sorry to hear you had to go have a catheter put in. When they took mine out, I had to go within 6 hours. I'm not sure what they would have done if I hadn't but, they kept bugging me until I went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nancy Rivers 24 Posted July 25, 2011 So sorry you had to go back to get the catheter. I had one in the hospital and they would not release me until I peed without it. I didn't feel like I had to, but the nurse said to try, and when I did, well, I did go. Hopefully you can get the catheter out soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
