Does anyone else still have side aches from a revision from the band to sleeve? I'm 10 days out & still feel it once in a while. I'm also so stinkin tired. Not really getting Protein & certainly having a tough time getting enough fluids in. Should be 32 oz at this point & I'm barely getting 20oz..



Is anyone else going through this? Anyone?

I had surgery 11 days ago, and yes I have pain on my left, probably where the drain tube was.

I struggled for the first 8 days with fluids, but seem to be doing better now.

Just keep sipping ;)

Worst case , contact your surgeons office.

Pain on the left is normal. It's also where they take the excised stomach out and there are more stitches there.

You should be drinking more than 20 oz. I'm 2 weeks out and drinking 64 oz a day. I've been doing this since day 3 or 4. It takes work. You don't want to get dehydrated. That could be why you're so tired.

I still have pain too on the left side but I figure it is not as much pain as having the lapband in. Thank you Jesus!!

I found that adding crystal light energy flavors to my Water help me get the water in and they add to the energy too. Who knew! My NP said it was ok, so I am glad I added them.
