Day 1 with sleeve, thing's I've learned.

- Fentanyl is great for pain relief, but it makes me very nauseous, tired and dizzy. So I'm having anymore.

- Having a catheter is horrible, but very convenient when it is in there. No more struggling over to the toilet.

- The gas pains are awful. I can't wait to be walking them off.

- Apparently I need to be on an anti reflux med for the foreseeable future,. This surprised me, as I have never had any issue with reflux, and my understanding was that the sleeve rarely triggers reflux. I'm going to talk to my surgeon about it it.

- Ice chips were my best friend overnight, my throat was and is very dry.

@DaisyJane I had the RNY and my doc put me on anti reflux and anti gallstones medicine for 60 days. I was surprised I never had reflux i think some doctors like to be careful.

i had surgery on october 3rd. i go for my 2 week post op apmt on wednesday. so i’m not sure how much weight i’ve lost but i was on an all liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery and then after surgery was 1oz of purée every 2.5-3hs and as of yesterday i upgraded to 2oz 4-6 times a day. it’s been pretty rough so far but it’ll all be worth it!

Help! 5 days in on pre-op diet and I want solid dood more than anything. It’s getting harder instead of easier
