Got my sleeve done yesterday and the past two days have been so painful. I’m so nauseous I’m dry heaving, shaking, I’m in excruciating pain. Any advice?

Got my sleeve done yesterday and the past two days have been so painful. I’m so nauseous I’m dry heaving, shaking, I’m in excruciating pain. Any advice?
1st thing is I hope you feel better soon and I'm sure you will eventually. Make sure you're taking your nausea and pain medications. Just try to relax and take it easy. Try putting a cool rag on your forehead. If it gets to bad, call your physician.

It gets better. Try to stay calm. Are you still in the hospital? You'll feel like a new person by the time you're discharged.

I'm 2 weeks post op. I was in a TON of pain as well. I read so much about people having hardly any pain so I was optimistic. I even read one person say it doesn't even feel like they had surgery. I literally yelled at my screen, "Well good for you!!". Lol. It just hits some people harder than others I guess. It will get better in a few days. I'm still in pain, but nothing like I was those 1st few days. I hope you feel better soon. Until then, don't try to be a hero. Stay up on your pain meds and don't push yourself. There are no awards for unnecessarily suffering!! I wish you the best.

Gosh Megg C I sure hope you are feeling and doing better. Hospitals can be nice when you're sick but they are never as nice as home, hope you're going home soon! But please keep us updated on how you're doing.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
