3 days post-op, I was able to actually rest last night, I feel slightly less sore. I am having some stabbing pain on the right side of my chest. I hope it's gas and not a blood clot. I am walking and using a heating pad. I will call my dr or go to the ER if it doesn't get better.

In the meantime any other suggestions?

Katia...i'm also 3day postop and everything u wrote is exactly what im going thru. I feel a lot better today.using my heat pad and walking as much as I can. I had a sharp pain on my left side last night but I think it was either gas or my incision. I feel swollen still so i'm afraid to get on scale and see that I gained. May just wait until next week to weigh in. what r u eating? I drink Water and only half a popsicle a day!!!

I was sleeved Monday the 18th all went well but I had terrible nausea right after surg. And for the next few days. What we've learned so the hole coming from my esophagus into my stomach is near closes. All liquid I was dying to take ended up in my esophagus and then lungs. Now I have pneumonia. They have been feeding me by iV and talking about sending me home with an iV. I would like them to put a scope down my esophagus just to what it looks like. My drs are convinced its just swelling. I should know Moore soon. Be grateful we were able to have the surgery.

Guys I had a panic attack on the way to the hospital and therefore had to cancel but I am rescheduled for April 1. They have now given me meds for the panic attacks so I should be fine. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am trying it today and so far its working.

I hope you feel better and by April 1 everything is a breeze!!!

Omg the shoulder pain..uuggg. yes I had that as well up until yesterday. They said it is gas and it will work its way out. It sure doesn't feel like any gas I've ever had before lol.

I am happy to hear you are all patched up now. How long after surgery did you find out you were bleeding?

Sleeved on the 19th too. Was feeling fantastic until last night when I got him with horrible gas pains. From my left shoulder all around my middle, sides and back. Pain was so intense I couldn't hardly move. Continuing into today, though not as severe.

Does anyone know if this gas pain comes and goes? It just shocked me because I thought I was through with it. Sure hope it's not a sign of something more serious.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
