Just Home From The Hospital



Recommended Posts

Just got home today. I was sleeved on Friday, everything went well. My doctor said he could tell I did well with my liquid diet...and I only have 4 incisions when most of his patients have 5 or 6. I had to spend an extra night in the hospital because my oxygen saturation wasn't that great. I am on oxygen at home now. Hopefully walking will eliminate the need for that.

I am also having a hard time with anything going down, I have horrible heartburn and gas. I know that some of you have had that same problem...what did you do? I am not going to be able to keep myself hydrated if I can't get anything to stay down.

I'm glad to hear that you're doing well now =) But I am sorry to hear about the heartburn and gas. For gas, I have been doing well with gas-x strips and walking. Walk walk walk, it helps a lot! Did your doctor give you a PPI for the heartburn? If not, call them and ask if you can take something for it.
