Millymollymandy22 3 Posted September 11, 2016 Hi I'm on day 3 post surgery. Have been trying to increase my Fluid intake slowly. Had some clear Soup and a small amount of a Protein shake. Both times really bad pain in my left ribs is this because I'm drinking too much too fast? Both time pain really bad but then subsides?

Lulu_lulu 32 Posted September 11, 2016 Hi. I had sleeve surgery. From what I know and experienced, pain in the ribs and body after surgery is usually due to CO2 in the body after surgery and is gone by walking and moving around.

mummyoche 4 Posted September 13, 2016 Hi. I'm 11days post op. I had the gastric sleeve. From my little experience, the first few days after surgery are the hardest as you'll find it difficult to swallow. The good news is that it gets better by the day. Hang in there and best of luck.
