Hi all,

I’m four days post op, with my op day being 15th Nov. Everything seems to be going OK after a shaky start right after they finished surgery as I was into anaphylaxis due to an unknown allergy to one of the meds used.

I’m up and about and out of hospital, feeling pretty good with only very minor pain.

I can get thru enough liquid, but have woken each night feeling uncomfortable, not sure if it’s reflux or nausea, it only happens after I have been sleeping for longer than a few hours. After I burp or go for a walk it passes for a short time, but doesn’t go away completely until I’m up and about for the day.

Just wondering if I should be worried, or if it’s normal?
Sounds like gas? Should go away in a few days.

Heyyyy guys I’m already on the other side! Last night was rough but with enough pain meds I survived the night. I’m taking in most of my liquids but very slowly because I become very gassy. I’m getting discharged today. I hope everyone that had there sleeve done 11/18 had a some what good experience in the hospital

Have been having the WORSE sciatica pain in my hips for 3 days. Burning and painful. Hurts to sit still. Medication is not helping. Walking gives me relief. Saw my surgeon today and he told me that because I'm losing weight (30 lbs since surgery) its changed my center of gravity and my gait. Apparently this is a common complaint of people losing weight. Its gonna take some time to resolve but I'm hopeful it will. Was just another unexpected outcome!

Dizzy isn’t good. Are you keeping hydrated? Hope you’re doing better

Surgery on the 18th went well. Wasnt able to leave yesterday as I anticipated due to drs having issues with my fistula for dialysis. Was able to have dialysis this morning and getting to go home. No major pain or discomfort, in feeling way better than I thought I would. Looking forward to the rest of this journey now!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
