GottaDoSomethin' 31 Posted July 17, 2014 I was July 14th too. I thought I would be doing a little better but I'm really sore. I'm just sipping and trying to walk. Soooo sleepy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GottaDoSomethin' 31 Posted July 18, 2014 Me too. The pain was horrible. Are you able to keep things down? I drink 3 8oz bottles of Water, 3 Popsicles, and about a half cup of chicken broth a day. I know that's not enough but I just keep trying to drink a little more each day. I do get stomach spasms when a drinking so I'm trying to be kind to my baby sleeve. I haven't had to touch the nausea meds yet, but feeling very sore at the main incision site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kris05 0 Posted July 18, 2014 I'm a 14th sleever. I'm hanging in there. Each day has gotten better. I still have pain in the main incision site. Overall I feel weak, fatigued. I think it's because the lack or nutrients. Clear Liquids has nothing. I hope I feel better when I start Protein Shakes. I'm walking around the house but don't really have enough energy to go outside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GottaDoSomethin' 31 Posted July 18, 2014 I have a swollen red spot in my upper arm. I'm thinking maybe a pooling of iv fluids or a pinched nerve from the blood pressure cuff. It hurts as bad as my main incision. Anyone else have this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

momma mac 2 Posted July 20, 2014 I had the sleeve done July 15th, and I'm having 3 Protein shakes daily - 4 oz of skim milk with a scoop of Protein mix. You're doing no protein at all?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GottaDoSomethin' 31 Posted July 20, 2014 I am allowed only clear liquids until my first post op appointment on Thursday. After a week of no calories, I'm starting to feel pretty weak... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
