Curious About Pain?



Recommended Posts

I've had my fair share of surgeries and am no stranger to post operative pain. What I'm wondering is how the pain and recovery for the sleeve compares to a complete hysterectomy. I didn't love the recovery but it wasn't to bad so I'm hoping it is comparable or less. Has anyone out there had a sleeve and a hysterectomy? How do they compare?

Id like to know the same thing........I had no pain except when I woke up and they were taking me to my room, as soon as they could I was on morhpine, kept on top of it. Never ever felt anything after that. I'm hoping thats how it will be when I get sleeved.......

I had no pain. I used the morphine pump anyways because I just wanted to sleep. It was a little painful getting up and down though but that was because of the incision sites and the cutting of my muscles. I had 6. :)

I have had both and have had almost no pain with the sleeve. 1st couple of days in the hospital I did use the morphine pump but I think the pain was more from trying to get in and out of bed than the actual surgery. Once home i didn't need it anymore.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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!
