I would talk to the doctor. I didn't have much pain until tonight. Throwing up is not fun or good

If your pain meds aren't working, CALL YOUR DOCTOR. Being in pain keeps you from healing quickly and properly. There is NO award for suffering. Also, pain that breaks through your meds could possibly mean you have a complication. Your doctor needs to know.

I cant help with the pain, i havent had my surgery yet it is the 29, and now i am really scared! Is you pain from the gas possible? I hope you feel better soon, did you say you went home in pain? That just seem wrong. Where did you have the surgery?

I'm still in pain too... Not that bad but sometimes I feel like I got the short end of the stick. I would definitely all the dr. If its that bad they need to do something for you. :-( Shouldn't have discharged you for sure.

I'd call the doctor. My pain was very minimal, even when I was IN the hospital.

today is day 3 and im feeling so much better. spoke to trish and she called Dr. Ponce while on the phone. everything is fine, I am so sore and could hardly move because is used so much muscle throwing up the first 24 hrs, i dont do good on anesthesia so i knew i would be sick just didnt realize to what extent, i showered by myself and walked, slept awesome and am ready for the beach today, I am now looking forward to living life with my new sleeve. didn mean to scare those who have not had it but everyone is different, my sleeve sister didnt have as much pain because she didnt vomit as much,

Jaymezee- I am right there with you! I just spoke with my doctor & am using ice, which ha been helping me. I alternate between ice and heat (for gas). My doctor does a deeper/ wider cut then some others. I am day 5 and am so bummed!! I know it will get better!!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
