Hi June sleevers! I'm sitting in my hospital bed, feeling fine, a little sore , but feeling fine. This morning I had to swallow some horrible tasting dye and the radiologis****ched it go down. No leaks!!! Yay!!!!! So I think I'm going home tomorrow.
It hasn't been too bad. I'm a little extra sore because I had my band removed and I had a huge hernia according to my doctor. I just ate some soup and jello. So far so good!!!!!!

My surgeon releases me on puree, with him there is no full liquid phase except that one day in the hospital. But I plan on having a few full liquids day lol!!!

Haapy that all is going well for you!
Keep us posted on your condition as the days pass
Oh and thanks for talking about taking meds while at hospital to sleep and rest, cause I usually refuse sleeping (well not consciously) after her suregry and only meds knock me out.

Michelle, I hope the pain calms down soon for you. You'll feel so much better once that eases up. If any of it is gas pain, try putting your arms in the air. A nurse suggested this to me and it did help. Can they give you pain tablets? I've been taking pills since the day after surgery and it went fine. I was nervous about how that would go but no problems. Good luck!

I got sleeved on Tues. 6/12. Came home Thur. 6/14. The extra day in the hospital did wonders for me. They also repaired a hernia on my belly button from probably gallbladder surgery. They only did one incision across my belly button and put all instruments through there. Day after surgery was rough but I think it was mainly due to the gas settling in my chest area. I walked and walked but it just wouldn't leave. No pain meds since leaving hospital. A little sorer today than yesterday because I rolled around alot in bed last night due to probably too long of a nap. No nap today. Ran a couple errands with my dad. Sitting outside most of today enjoying the beautiful NC weather we're having. Never had time (or took the time) to do this before. 2 oz. protein at top of hour and hydrating liquid on the other :15 minutes. Really no hunger except when I first wake up since I stay in bed a long time but after having my 2 oz of water or protein, stomach is fine. Feel more bloated today but wonder if that's because I'm sorer. So far so good! Took a shower today and that felt great. It sounds like everyone so far is doing pretty well. Hope we continue that! Good luck to those June sleevers yet to go. It can be rough the day of and after but take the pain meds and nausea meds definitely while in hospital. They can knock you out but the rest is very helpful!
