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!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
