sleevdB89 42 Posted April 13, 2019 So I had my sleeve done yesterday!!! Feeling ok today. Much better than expected. Nothing by mouth yet. Feeling thirsty, slight nausea. But feeling blessed to be up and moving around. 7 thatch, Colorado Cowgirl, Kris77 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GradyCat 3,695 Posted April 13, 2019 Glad you're doing okay. I was surprised at how much easier it was than expected. I was nauseous on Day #1, but felt good and was up and walking. Take care and good luck on your WLS journey. 1 sleevdB89 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lamaena 2 Posted April 13, 2019 Congrats!!! I'm 5 days out and doing fairly well. I am sick of the fluids though, can't wait to purees! The walking and sipping Water helps.

sleevdB89 42 Posted April 14, 2019 Post op day 2. Fluids are giving me major indigestion. It hurts so bad. Any thoughts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Briswife15 890 Posted April 14, 2019 What fluids are you trying? Are you taking tiny sips?Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevdB89 42 Posted April 14, 2019 @Briswife15 broth, ice Water, crystal light Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Briswife15 890 Posted April 14, 2019 Have you noticed any difference when you sip warm broth versus the ice Water? I am 18 days post op, and ice cold fluids cause spasms. I get pain if I gulp rather than several baby sips. I drink a lot of Crystal Light in cool, but not cold water. Try varying the temperature and take smaller sips.

Briswife15 890 Posted April 14, 2019 Oh, I also found the lemonade Crystal Light gave me pouch pain. I switched to fruit punch and citrus and they are less acidic and irritating than lemonade.Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevdB89 42 Posted April 14, 2019 @briswife15 omg... that’s what it feels like, some sort of spasm. Ok, noted. Will try warm rather than cold & hold off on the lemonade crystal light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
