I'm right there with you. Lots of pain post op, I had surgery on Wednesday. I hope it gets easier for you. I'm doing a bit better today which is giving me some sense of mind.

Eating really isn't the point right now. Just focus on Water and little sips of broth for a week or so, walking and relaxing.

I'm right there too. I was sleeved on Wednesday. The pain for me has been tolerable, I'm struggling with horrible nausea. Yesterday i only got my protien chicken broth amd half a bottle of Water in, everything makes me want to throw up. :( i went off of ny pain meds at the rnd of day 2 and that has helped a little but now my stomach is growling and gurgling like crazy and now im battling diarrhea. Praying we both get feeling better soon!!!

I was also sleeved yesterday and because I was unable to even keep Water down, I have to stay amother night. Today has been a lot better though. They think it was the pain medicine making me sick, so we stopped that. I didnt have any gas pains, just feel like ive done a thousand crunches, lol. Good luck to everyone and prayers for speedy recoveries [emoji4]

Day 17 - down 22 lbs from surgery. Heading back to work on Tuesday. Currently on purees. Some residual nerve damage/pain to the left of my belly button. chewable Probiotics might be my best friend. Incisions are almost all the way healed.

Wearing an abdominal binder for additional support/gentle reminder not to lift.

Me too!! I had surgery Thursday. The upper GI that was done to check for leaks made me so sick and the pain meds made me nauseous too. They changed my pain meds and gave me a medication for nausea. It's been better since yesterday evening. I have the rubbles and gurgling too. And had diarrhea as soon as I got home. Makes me feel better that I'm not the only one. I hope it passes soon. Hope your feeling better soon.

I just had surgery on Wednesday as well. The gas pain was absolutely miserable but luckily just about gone now. I had a drain and the removal was the weirdest thing I have ever experienced. I usually get nauseous very easily so I've been sooo happy that I haven't been sick and am handling 50-60 ounces of Fluid per day without problem. I hope all my fellow April sleepers are continuing to recover well!

I had surgery Thursday. The first day was a struggle. Today I got about 50 oz in Water, sugar free Jello, sugar free water ice and broth.although my stomach doesn't seem to like very cold stuff. I haven't taken any more pain meds other than Tylenol. I am more uncomfortable than in pain. Gas is making its way through without major pain.. so far so good hope everyone is feeling better every day!

I had surgery yesterday and first day was horrible. I was in a lot of pain and horrible gas pain in my shoulder. I didn't have a lot of issues with nausea except when given pain meds but was able to keep it down and it passed within a few minutes. Today I was allowed to drink Water through the day and I have been walking a lot. This definitely helped with gas pain. Tomorrow I can start a liquid diet and if I am able to keep it down I should get to go home.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
