I'm officially a post-op sleever



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve surgery on August 11. I stayed two nights in Wilmington Hospital. I was discharged today with no issues. I'm In some pain, but most of it is gas pain. The majority of the discomfort and pain that I felt came from the drain lodged in my abdomen. Once that was removed, I felt almost 100% better. I can't wait to be completely pain free.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
