June surgery dates

[Purrplelover 48]

I was sleeved June 10th and I was feeling so good yesterday!! Today I decided to go into work for 3 hours. (I am a wound nurse) And let me tell you. I am now exhausted!! I think I am gonna take a nap and relax now. I really thought I would be ok with returning to work, but nope! I even had an aide come in so I did not have to push/pull/lift patients. I am waiting on my energy to come back!

About 3 weeks before my surgery I went to the dentist and discovered I had an infection under a crown. The dentist said I should get the infection out before surgery or it could cause problems. I had the tooth pulled the very next day. Thankfully I had time to deal with it. I agree for your health and safety you need to talk to your doctor.

Hello All,

I was sleeved 6/13 and have been doing well. More sore than painful. Someone mentioned spasms. I think that's what I have. Can someone give any advice? When I drink there's a quick gas pain in my chest and after the liquid goes down the spasm stops. Should I call the Doc?

Wow!!! I had surgery June 10th as well and my stomach is still so sore I need help getting myself up half the time. No way I could attempt going back to work yet.

I was sleeved the 10th. I am having the exact same quick pain/spasm as you. It sounds like others are having the same issue somewhat. I will say 5 days out it is MUCH easier and lesser now than it was even two days ago so I think it is normal

Being sleeved next Friday I had my gallbladder removed years ago and the worst part of it was the GAS pain I'm not looking forward to that again:(

Thanks so very much! I was concerned bc it feels so weird. Like a tummy growl coupled with gas pain. I'm also taking liquid lortab and trying my best to sit up versus laying down.

Sounds like the gas pains to me. I had constant heaviness in my chest. Day 3 I thought I was having a heart attack, day 5 much better. When I would take too big a sip I would get that painful "stuck" feeling until it finally moved down. Walking and gas x strips helped me a lot.

Thanks Jh. I'm taking gas x strips and walking along w sitting up. Ready for this part to be over so that I can feel the benefits of my new tummy.

I was amazed that I *didn't* have gas pains this time around (I previously had a LapBand and LapBand removal - bad gas pains both times). I flew through recovery other than being tired! I'm 8 days post-op now and looking forward to work on Monday .

I bought them at a store called "The Vitamin Shoppe" . They are in glass bottles. Run about $4.00 but sooooo worth it! Each bottle has 40 grams of protein.my favs are cocnut, blue raspberry & grape frost. I mix the blue with half leomade crystal lite and LOVVVE IT! I drink on the bottle through out the day. I start with my blender glass filled with ice and keep adding ice as it melts or Crystal light. I get my Protein and Water in this way! Lovvve it.

$4.00 sorry. I think you can get them at GNC as well even on Amazon.com. I tried every flavor to find my favorite. The ones I thought I'd like, I ended up hating. I thought coconut would be gross, but eneded up being one of my favs!
