Shortness of breath after surgery needs to be addressed right away either with your surgeon or your primary care doctor. It's a must!! liquid stools postop when you're following a liquid diet are ok unless you're getting dehydrated. CALL YOUR DOCTOR please.

I'm glad you were smart enough to do that. A pulmonary embolism is the biggest concern. Keeping fingers crossed that it's only something minor.

Were you given an incentive spirometer to use after surgery? I was instructed to use mine for quite a while post-op.

It's important to make sure our lungs are fully re inflated after surgery.

Yes, it's the "blow thingy". I had one device to blow into every hour and one to vibrate my lungs every hour (so basically using one or the other every 30 minutes).

It's purpose is to make sure you fully inflate your lungs. This helps to prevent pneumonia.

Relax, you get more radiation flying in a plane. It's not too late to do your incentive spirometry. Did you keep it? Try and use it every hour while your awake. If it's been misplaced, take very slow deep breaths to expand your lungs every hour instead.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
