amwr6582 26 Posted November 17, 2012 I got home yesterday. Surgery was good and my pain has been relatively low. It's just sore. I was so nauseous after my swallow test Thursday. I didn't want to go home. Happy I am home now. Had a full nights worth of sleep in my bed propped up with pillows! Still have lots of gas. It's annoying but not very painful. Hope everyone is doing well!!! My incisions were sealed up with dissolving stitches and surgical glue. Anyone else have that? Had no drain. Was happy about that! 1 Mrsdw206 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope things get better for you. Hopefully, you can go home soon. Getting the liquids in is really a struggle. I hope it gets easier with time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kcaaunt 6 Posted November 17, 2012 Got sleeved on Wednesday. Got discharged on Thursday. Was up walking after surgery. Got dry heaves whenever the put the pain meds in my IV. Only ate ice on Wednesday. Drank Water and ate popsicles Thursday and Friday. Drinking water and soy milk today. Still walking. Feel tired after I do anything. Gas is still the worst part. Ready to be done with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol you can't see it in my pic but there is a big dent right above the middle incision. That's been giving me a lot of pain. The rest of them don't hurt. I was surprised at how clean they all looked. Hope yours get better soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ozeedonkee 145 Posted November 18, 2012 My incisions were sealed up with dissolving stitches and surgical glue. Anyone else have that? Had no drain. Was happy about that!
