jasleeve 440 Posted December 23, 2011 so i was sleeved on dec 20th. yay! i am doing ok.. BUT.... one of my incisions are red and irritated. it was red & irritated in the hospital & i was put on antibiotics. the redness went away before being discharged but after getting out of bed on my own 2x, its redder than before! i will start on the antibiotics again tomorrow! also, im coughing up phlegm. i do the respiratory breathing but i cough up phlegm without it. is that normal? it was only green one time. the other 4-5 were white. and i noticed that when i take my pain meds, my knees get a numbing sensation. is it just me? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted December 23, 2011 Glad to hear you were able to talk with him before being dc. My leg started cramping when I was driving about 5 weeks out and I started thinking I was getting a blood clot, so I went to the ER and no, I wasn't having a blood clot. 11 weeks out and I'm good to go, pasted the 8 week mark! You will do fine... Any questions and we can call the surgeon's office. That's what they're paid for. Have a Merry Christmas and I can't wait to hear about the lbs and inches just dropping off.
