I feel like someone stabbed me in the shoulder and turns the knife every so often. They say its from gas, so I am walking like crazy to get the air out. My side hurt a lil bit, but nothing major. Overall, Better than I expected.

I'm in the exact same boat I was expecting so much pain but it really is just the gas that is uncomfortable

Me too! I thought it would be so much worse! The hardest part is getting in and out of bed. My tummy does hurt a lot but while he was in there he also removed 2 huge cysts, 1 was right beside my tummy we didn't know about!

Im doing pretty good here also, glad everyones feelin a little better. Been up and doin my laps around all day. Walking has def helped. Looking forward to goin home tomorrow, well technically. Still have no power and now another storm is headed in our area tomorrow into thursday, so i guess thats also going to delay getting our power back. But headed to my grandmas to recoop.. She just got her power back so thank goodness i have somewhere to go.. Getting a lil stir crazy in the hospital. The heat or air or something here is broken, so it just blows hot air 24/7 in my room, i was literally sweating, they had to get me a fan that i have blowing on me.. Havent even slept with a blanket the entire time thats how hot it is lol. But not really feelin any pain as of this evening, im more annoyed with the oxygen in my nose.. Its sooooo annoying.. I hate it lol. Oh well, going to get some rest now.. Hope all the nov 5th and 6th sleevers are doin well.. Keep the updates coming.. god bless!

How's are you all doing. Your stories are really helping me relax my big day was oct 31st but pushed back due to hurricane sandy and I have one more full day.

[My Sleeved Tummy 56]

I'm feeling really good! Not too much pain, mostly just discomfort. I've been up walking and im having a few icechips. I'm not even really tired...just keep drowsing off from the meds ,I think. I had surgery at 8 am today.

Hows everyone else doing?

[sunshyneqtie 73]

I feel great today. I heard day two was suppose to be worse than day one, but it hasn't been. I got to see my lil stomach on the X-ray machine during the leak test. It's pretty cute.

Very much anticipating my apple juice!

[michelle1112 20]

As for me, day 2 post op, it's been a lot worse than yesterday. These gas pains are no joke but walking has helped. I'm feeling pretty good right now I just took some pain medicine and been munching on ice chips.. Just can't wait to head home tomorrow.
