Woke up with pain this AM



Recommended Posts

Ok fellow sleevers. I woke up this morning with some pain. I haven't had pain since day 5. I am post op day 11. The NUT told me full liquids again this week but my surgeon said eggs and tuna and mashed potatoes. Yesterday I ate a Protein Shake in the morning. Then had 5 bites of tilapia, mashed potatoes and mashed squash (all together 5 bites not 5 bites each). Then for dinner I had refried Beans and shredded cheese (5 bites). Everything was tolerated well and I just woke up with pain. Do you think it could be that I just over did it with food? Or do you think I could have a leak? No fever or chills, was a bit dizzy this morning but ok now. Maybe I slept in a weird position?Should I call my surgeon?

Hi @@nessa259, i am assuming your already ruled out gas and your new hunger signs? Have you tried walking some this morning? If you feel the pain is unbearable you might want to give your surgeons office a call.

I think anytime you are concerned.. you should call. If for nothing else, peace of mind and suggestions.

I am anxious to see your progress. Stay calm... carry on :)

Congratulations on your commitment!

Blessings for a pain free day :)

Thanks all. I am still In a little pain but more like gas pain now so hopefully that is it. If not better by tomorrow I will call for sure.

Just spoke to the nurse at my surgeons office. The pain I have been feeling is more than likely the residual pain from where the lap band and port were removed. No fever no chills no nausea so she said it doesn't sound like a leak. Thank God!! ????????????????????????

Thanks for all of your support!!

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
