Anyone else unable to keep down liquids post op?

[Happylife 6]

Sorry not trying to scare anyone here. I had my surgery August 10. Right after surgery and until now I am unable to keep down liquids. My surgeon told me I was tight . He used a 38 bougie but he sais that It is not only the size of the bougie but also how the skin is wrapped around it. I have never vomited so much in my life . I vomit up slimy bubbly stuff. Also meds . I am however in no pain. I am going to see him and his team every morning for fluids and meds through IV.. they seem to think i should be better soon. As the swelling will come down. Toay is the first day i feel coherent. I have no depression even having gone through this I am happy with my decision. One og the doctors there have had this done. Any three or four of the girls. The staff is really caring and even came in today for only me. They are very experienced with 20 years experience. Can anyone else share experiences?

I'm so sorry you are going through this. Very stressful and scary! I don't have any experiences..since I have not yet been sleeved. I hope the swelling goes down soon and you are able to keep down liquids!

I had surgery Aug 4th and I can't drink more than eight ounces. I went back to the hospital Aug 11th to get rehydrated. I want to know when it is going to get better! I am told to try to drink my Protein but how do I do that when I can't drink? From day of one of surgery I vomited everyday til day four, then I went home. Now if I drink too much or eat something, I start salivating more than normal, the pressure in my stomach is too much, and now I will vomit a small amount. I feel better afterwards, but when will this stop? I wish there was more info from the doctor. I thank everyone on this website that gives us all information. Good Luck, I hope you feel better soon.

I was sleeved Monday and I have felt very tight and it takes me my whole day to get in my 64 oz of fluids, I am still working on about 4 more ounces right now and very ready for bed (been up for 15 hours now). I have to dink slow, it is a good hours to get in 6 oz but it is usually much less - more like 3-4 oz. SF popsicles seem to be easier (maybe helps the swelling?) but so does the broth. All sweet things make me very phlemy so I try and avoid them. I have gotten 1 whole shake down the last two days but before that it was maybe a few ounces of them. My Dr uses a 40 Bougie. Do they have you on a PPI? I can tell it helps some for me.

Hope your swelling goes down soon!
