I'm 5 days post op having trouble today just ate some sugar free Jello and laid down. Started feeling nauseous so I took an anti nauseas pill but I didn't take it soon enough. Sat up in my chair thinking elevation would help but I just violently dry heaved for about 3 mins. What are the chances I just hurt my sleeve?

Hello, sorry to hear your having trouble I'm 5 days out as well, for 2 nights straight I was having terrible gas pain but didn't know at the time it was gas. I tried the antacid pills they don't work. I called my Doc and asked him b/c I was scarred he recommended as much walking as I could, I also discovered that my sugar free popsicles actually helped out some ... Hope you feel better soon Best wishes

I am 2 weeks post op, the only thing that really helped when that feeling came on was to walk, remember to eat very slowly and you should be fine!

Well unless you experience sharp alarming pains, fever, basically anything extremely severe you are okay. Be sure to keep in contact with your doctor incase you are still unsure, for the most part leaks are common within the first 3 months due to over eating so take it slow in the future and perhaps mush anything you're eating into a thinner consistency.

I dry heaved for 14 hours straight after my sleeve! The nurses had their hands full with me! LOL! I was worried I would rip my staples right out, but the nurses weren't concerned. After three days, I had my x-ray and everything was just fine. No leaks. Good luck to you.

I hope I can be that lucky too. Thank you

      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.
