521Diva 91 Posted March 27, 2014 Hi everyone, Sleeved @8am this morning & was up walking by 11:30, after being in the recovery room for 20 mins. Stomach is a lol sore, most of the pain WAS in my shoulder from gas. I was told to get back in bed by 2pm since I started bleeding from one of the surgery sites, from doing to much to fast. Shoulder not hurting as much. I will be going home tomorrow. Woohoo thank you Jesus. 1 michelle68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jluv 3 Posted March 28, 2014 I was sleeved last week Tuesday. The hospital I was in required us to walk the floor every 2 hours even overnight to get rid of the gas and help ease the pain. The walk was not long, maybe 10 minutes. I must say I had minimal gas and by day 2 no pain. Today 9 days out, the only sign or reminder I just had major surgery is the incisions. Good luck & keep moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdillon 355 Posted March 28, 2014 Thank you for that post. There's hope that there will be minimal pain. I keep reading how people are in pain for days. Hope mine goes as well as yours. Walking sounds like the ticket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
