Thanks guys. Feeling a bit better tonight I think the gas to going away and taking deep breaths isn't such a problem anymore. I try not to stay in one place long cause it does feel better to move around.

I am keeping track of my one incision and although it is paining me it is not looking red or swollen. I think I will for sure call the clinic early tomorrow though if it has not let up.

I guess I just feel weird cause I don't know what is normal and what I should be worried about. Never had surgery before and although I read about peoples experiences you never quite get it until you live it. Guess I am just learning the hard way. :)

Dame J,

Hope you're feeling better. If you have any questions the clinic is the best source. Moving around was what dispelled the "gas" for me. If I didn't the shoulder pain was terrible.

Good luck and take it one day at a time!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
