chanceatlife 3 Posted August 29, 2017 I am new to this and am looking for some support going through this rather difficult time. I am 2 wks post op and I am feeling kind of regretful. I know this is a life altering procedure that I thought I was prepared to handle but I can't seem to get rid of the nausea and the discomfort of the knot that sits below my chest even after just sipping Water. Any suggestions? 1 njgal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ta2dgurlnj 0 Posted October 24, 2017 South Jersey here and just one week out! 10/17/17 no nausea no pain just a little sore. Heading back to work tomorrow. Sorry you're having a tough time but I think it will pass! Sip sip sip tiny sips! Also I added a 1/4 cup Apple juice to about a cup of Water. Makes it easier for me to drink.

goldenbarbie 329 Posted October 30, 2017 Don't regret it! Take smaller sips, or suck on ice. I was sleeved in December and I had the same problem up to the point where I was in and out of the hospital frequently for dehydration. That stopped about after 7 weeks out. Now I'm almost a year and almost at my goal already. You'll get through it! No worries. Feel better. 2 njgal and gm/bill reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
