I was sleeved yesterday...everything went well and made it to my room about 3:30. The gas pains are unbearable and they have me some gas strips. Walking is a nightmare and my left side is the most painful. It's just describable pain. I hope everyone else is doing better than me right now.

I'm the same boat. I was sleeved Monday afternoon. The pain is crazy. I can barely sit up better yet walk around. The gas.pains just started today. I have gas x strips but I am not allowed to take them :( I'm still in the hospital a little nervous about being released while I'm in this much pain. I plan to walk a lot today maybe that will help tremendously.

These first few days will be rough but we can make it through. Stay strong!

I too was in horrible pain from the time I woke up and the pain meds did not cut it. My dr asked me if I wanted to stay an extra day and iam so glad I did. It was a lot better the next day.

You have to make yourself walk, then lay on your left side and try to release the gas...

I was sleeved Monday and the walking really does help. The pain was really bad until I forced myself to get up and walk. It really does get better so hang in there.

I was sleeved on 2/20 and the pain afterwards was horrible. I felt like I jumped off the Empire State Building and was then hit by a diesel. My nurse was giving me Tylenol through my I'VE but that wasn't helping. I asked for something stronger so they gave me morphine. That did help and made me sleepy, which was fine. The pain lasted for about 2 days. I was prescribed Vicodin but haven't used it at all. I feel fine now. Still sore and move a little slow, but overall pain free.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
