Lorie269 392 Posted October 10, 2013 Melissa, I'm so sorry you are having problems. It's been about 3 months since my surgery so I remember well how bad I felt for the first week or two after I got home. I even had to stay at Magee for an extra night and day becausee I couldn't get fluids in. You made the right call by going back to the hospital. Once you get fluids in, you will feel so much better. I really hope everything starts to get better for you quick. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissa1234 69 Posted October 10, 2013 Aw thanks Lorie! I'm feeling better this morning. Already got in 12 oz of liquid so on track for a good day that way. Have my 1 week follow up tomorrow with dr Eid so hopefully I will be moved to full liquids and start to recover properly. I know the future will be brighter, just hard to see that at this stage of the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m&m4ever 109 Posted October 10, 2013 I feel your pain! My sleeve was inflamed after surgery, so drinking fluids was torture! By 2 weeks after surgery it got so much easier. It will get better soon! Hang in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melissa1234 69 Posted October 10, 2013 Yeah they told me my sleeve was most likely tight and swollen making my drinking very difficult. Good to know it gets better soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
