Sleeves today

Hey guys just sleeves today. Is it normal to have a heaviness in my chest area?

I certainly did.......doctor told me to walk as much as I could to help relieve the pressure. It was mostly in my upper chest and around my collar bone. It went away after about a week. Good luck to you as you begin your journey. I'm 4 months out and it was the best decision I ever made

I was sleeved on 11/21 and I did also, they told me it was from the gas used during surgery. Walk as much as you can it moves the gas out faster..the gasx meds help some

Yes I'm having the same issue. GasX strips seem to help along with walking. Just had surgery on Monday.

Sleeved today and I have the same feeling, it's gas.
