Blewis913 20 Posted June 7, 2016 I just had my surgery 7 hours ago. The gas pain was pretty bad for a little while. It's better now. I'm walking around my room. It feels like I did 500 sit-ups. My abdomen is really sore. I'm really thirsty but the doctor said I can't have anything until tomorrow. The nurse coordinator was sleeved a year ago. She's lost 120 lbs. It's great to pick her brain about her experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
