Hello, I was sleeved October 17th. It has been far from an easy journey. I have been in the hospital more than not because of dehydration, I am still on Clear Liquids. Halloween I had to do a CT scan and found out I have a blood clot in my stomach, in the vein right next to my liver. I was in back in the hospital for 5 days and now home taking it easy and now on blood thinners for at least 6 months. Has anyone else gone through this?

Oh, I'm sorry you've had these complications :(

Let's hope it'll all be up from here. I have seen someone else on the board have a blood clot... wanna say it was near the spleen, not sure. Pretty sure it turned out ok for them.

[Hugs] One day you'll be on the other side of this, and say it was a rough start, but all worth it!

I didn’t have a blood clot but my lung collapsed. I keep getting dehydrated. My dr told me my goal was 3 bottles of sugar free Powerade a day which I’m struggling to do. I just set times I have to have them gone by. I could be doing purees but I haven’t. I’m still struggling so much with the liquids I’m just holding off

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
