Recovery 4 days post op?



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I am hoping to get confirmation to have my sleeve surgery on 28 may. My daughter has a hospital appointment on 1 June, so 4 days after my surgery. Will I be up to attending this with her? I know we are all different and also it depends if all goes smoothly but to get an idea from others would be helpful. Thanks in advance ????

You should easily be able to be up and moving around 4 days post-op. You should already be up and walking the night of your surgery. The main physical restriction post-op will be lifting. But as far as just walking and running errands, you should be fine. You may also be restricted from driving if you are still on pain meds a few days post-op. Just ask your doctor about that depending on what meds you are given.

Just remember you will be tired, so rest afterwards. But I think you should be fine too. Congrats on having a date!

As long as you're not carrying her to the appointment, you should be fine ;)
