I really wish I never had the sleeve. I am in so much pain. I ended up going to the hospital yesterday and the doctor had nothing to say what was wrong. I'm absolutely miserable and the sight of food makes me want to puke. I'm 6 weeks out and I feel like death. This is the worst thing I've ever done to myself and I would never recommend this surgery to anyone. If this pain doesn't go away soon I don't know what I'll do.

They did a bunch of tests. I physically cannot eat at all. My pain is in my abdomen, and I feel nauseous all the time! I don't have a leak and they checked if it was my gallbladder. I don't know how much longer I can feel like this.. It's unbearable

Hopefully the tests will come back with some answers. You can't carry on like that!

Have you had any post op visits?

This is why I'm afraid to travel anywhere to get surgery for fear that if I have complications my team won't be near.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
