hi there. Congrats. I was sleeved on the 18th as well. Post op is going good so far.

I'm not in pain, just really sore on my left side. I quit taking pain meds yesterday bc I can't stand the taste of liquid lortab!!! I've gotten all my Protein in last 2 days but can only get in about 32-36 oz of fluids.

Can you at least take extra strength Tylenol in liquid form? I couldn't imagine not having my pain meds now.

CONGRATS! Just be careful hanging out on the interwebs - you're more affected by those surgery drugs than you may realize - I sent complete nonsense to my boss at work when I tried to let her know all went well

Ditto. I felt just fine, but my sister reported that our FaceTime conversation about 4 hours postop was pretty entertaining!

Not sure if anyone can answer a couple questions. I had my sleeve 3/17. Came home 3/18. Still have lots of gas and pain on the side. Has anyone had any of these issues, can't poop, sleep and hard to breathe when laying down?

Need to keep using your breathing thingy they give you at the hospital to keep your lungs operating well. And walk walk walk. Every hour or two. It will get the gas out that they put in during surgery.

Don't mean to be graphic, but the only "movements" I've had have been of the liquid kind - I guess liquid in, liquid out is what I should expect.

Yeah. My innards (lol) kept me laughing for awhile. They were quite LOUD. The, ugh, liquid in/liquid out lasts until you up your Proteins or start on solids. It too shall pass. ????
