Day 4 and worse'd day so far.



Recommended Posts

Had surgery on Monday 20th, first two days went by pretty easy, yesterday wasn't to bad, but today has been no fun, dry heaves and now more sickness, had to use the bucket more then once today, Pain in the right side is just as bad, but hurts more when the dry heaves start, those seem to start after taking the anti sickness pills, Please tell me this is going to be worth it, I've never felt this bad before.

I would put a call into your doctor maybe you need some type of other pill. They make the big bucks so worry about you feeling better. Good luck!

I too had surgery on the 20th and have been nauseous yesterday. But I took zofran and it kicked it in the butt. But it gets better. My nurses were surprised that I am doing so well. It gets better. I promise. If you wanna have a buddy just let me know and I'll talk to you!

Oddly I think day 4 was rough for me too. I had one day of nausea -- it was 3 or 4 -- I hope you feel better very soon!

Dry heaving is not normal unless you are drinking too fast or have eaten something your not supposed to. If you are foaming you need to go to ER. That is a sign your esophagus near your pouch collapsed. Also watch your heart rate (not over 120) and temp.

FYI my worse days were 4-9

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      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.
