thesigndiva 1 Posted September 27, 2014 Sleeved Sept 15,2014 lost about 10lbs so far, no pre-opt diet needed , I had kind of an emergency situation and no time for it, I had existing lap band surgery in 07 that was causing many problems and had to be removed asap so they removed it and did a revision to the sleeve. I'm starting to get hungry for real food so I ate some cheese BIG MISTAKE! Extreme Dumping syndrome! I'm afraid to leave my house! I have not had any pain medicine since I have been home bc it makes me sick. I'm still in a great deal of pain but am healing.I go back to work on Monday and I'm worried.

Ash51 32 Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Just under two weeks after surgery. No real issues at the moment (injecting myself with Clexane each morning sucks but tomorrow is the last day of that). Be moving to puree in the next few days (yay!) the liquid phase has been OK, just a bit boring. I'm pretty sure I haven't been getting enough protien as I can't stomach (heh!) Protein Shakes or powders but I'll be getting plenty of meat and legumes soon so I'm not too worried. So far I've dropped 20kg (about 44lbs) since my first appointment with the surgeon.

Best thing I can suggest is keep up the pain medication. I am 11 days out now and feel a million times better. Tried a hero day the other day where I had no pain relief made my pain so much worse. Walking is good gets the blood flowing and heat packs. Thinking of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
