bg9249 18 Posted July 10, 2016 I was sleeved on July 8th, and prior to surgery I read a recommendation to buy an abdominal binder. I put it on tonight after my first shower, and the comfort of the abdominal binder is awesome. I would highly recommend one, it makes you feel comfortable, and like your tummy area and insides aren't all over the place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WitchySar 244 Posted July 10, 2016 Where did you get yours? I looked for one after my gallbladder removal and couldn't find one big enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmorri 1,689 Posted July 10, 2016 @@WitchySar I got one at Baby's R Us...........You can also ask the hospital for one.

VEGAN ME 117 Posted July 10, 2016 I looked up medical supply near me and went and got one, it was about 25.00 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hotmama@48 9 Posted July 10, 2016 Good idea!...I will definitely look into getting one. I recall having my very first abdominal surgery many years ago, and wished that I had thought/known about this...I used a cough pillow that my nurse made for me, but it wasn't too effective...This sounds like it would be.
