Sleeved yesterday! (15 March)

[whitneym912 8]

Hi everyone!

I am not sure if this has been answered anywhere already, but I thought I would ask if anyone has any pointers about the urination frequency. I have been going about every hour for the past several Hours. Is that normal? I feel like I always have to pee!

Also, did anyone have crazy, what feels like pressure, on their bladder the day of surgery and into the next morning?

I'm thinking it's gas, and am trying to walk around as much as I can.

Thank you

It could just be all the excess IVF coming off from surgery. If you had a urinary catheter during surgery, you could have some irritation from that as well. A long as there is no pain with urination you should be ok. When in double check with your physician.

Best Wishes on your journey! Walk and stay hydrated.

edited to say IVF= Intravenous Fluid

My nurses were very pleased with the frequency for me. I didn't have any issues. As doingit4me2017 said, it's because you're fluids through your IV. Do you get to go home today? I had my surgery last Wednesday, when I went home, it slowed some but if you're drinking the 64 fl oz of Water, not much until you get used to it.

Had my surgery yesterday as well! I did get up a few times throughout the night to pee. Currently just have a lot of pressure on my upper stomach I think just from gas. Got to start my Clear Liquids today! Hope you're recovery goes smoothly!!
