My experience with my sleeve syrgery: day 1 after surgery throwing up all nausea medicine given to me through iv, lots of gas pain in my upper chest, did alot of walking and helped with moving around the gas. 2nd day is today feeling way better was able to let some gas out the back end lol and the gas pain has gotten much much better still up and walking as much as I can. Really no pain from surgery that I have experienced just the gas pain which im really thankful for. However I'm not able to keep the pain medication down which I took yesterday thought it would help with the gas pain and threw it up as well.

I just had mine done on the 15. I didn't have any of those complications but I thought I was going to. The pain med that I am using is a liquid low dose of Hydrocodone that has Acetaminophen in it. It has been doing great with no nausea. I would recommend that pain med with some gatorade. I can also say walk, walk, walk, walk. It really helped me a lot. Also, one trick with the gas pains that helped is take a really deep breath and hold for a few seconds and keep it tight. Keep doing that and it helped with the pain a lot. Good luck to you! It will get better soon!

I was sleeved the same day. How are you doing? Im having to do just Clear liquids for 2 weeks. Im not hungry just trying to get all my fluids in before I havet to go back to wk. Days after it was hard sipping on 2oz of Water but has gotten better. It seems like i was feeling everything go down to my stomach. Its not really appending that much anymore. Did you ever feel that.

Sleeved on 14th. Got really bad Thursday-Friday with nausea. Only kept down ice chips. Quit pain meds and got rid of all fake sweeteners. Feeling better today-but it's hard to get Protein without fake sweeteners.

      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.
