getnfit52 12 Posted April 2, 2015 I would like to connect with others sleeved on the 27th or the day before or day after. I think it would be helpful to be encouraged etc by others that are in the same stage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carmen606 14 Posted April 2, 2015 I too was "sleeved" on the 27th....my surgeon doesnt believe in sending patients home with pain meds therefore I was in the hospital 3 nights and 4 days with one blood clot scare ..doppler showed no clots....i have no idea what it was but my leg was swollen and my calf was stiff (walking up and down stairs and fluids took it down in a few days).......i was really dehydrated until my surgeon talked to me and clarified how much i needed to be drinking and that i needed to add gatorade...gatorade is my LIFE BLOOD ever since i've had it i feel a zillion times better...the gas pain is the worst but i walk it off and take gas-x...how is your experience going @@getnfit52?

getnfit52 12 Posted April 2, 2015 It has been a challenge to get down my 64 oz of deluded juice or gatoraide. My top was 48 oz. The sweetness makes me nausea. So I am looking forward to drinking Water on Fri with pureed diet. I would say the gas was the major issue for me also. It went up into my shoulders and neck, painful. Yesterday I was thinking that it is a little better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
