I'm 5 days post-op and still feeling more pain that I'd expected. I'm also having trouble keeping certain liquids down and consuming enough water. Anyone else having similar issues? Thanks!!!

Hi there! Yes that has been my experience too. day 6 for me and although I haven't taken any pain relief today it is uncomfortable to drink and I've had no luck getting any protein drink
down. I have found low calorie juice has been the best way to get my water/fluid intake and I'm enjoying half a cup of soup twice a day. It has been getting better but it's slow going and I'm so exhausted.
Jope things get better and better for us both. much love

I'm feeling good 1 week post op, just still feeling swallon, I hear that could stay for 4 weeks I find it a lot easier to stomach things since I've started my Omeprazole. I've been able to take way longer sips of liquid without feeling sick.

I feel great had no issues so far, I feel blessed thus is a new journey!!

Hi everyone! Thanks for the feedback :-)

I've been able to keep everything down today. I hope this continues!

Hi, Im 9 days out and feeling pretty darn good. No problems with water or pain. Just when eating some pain behind my sternum. Its been trial an error on what my sleeve will tolorate...lots of flying trips to the bathroom!!

Hi Monica03! I can completely relate to everything you posted!! Trial and error with foods pretty much sums up my experience as well. I'm learning a lot about myself and how to have self control - even after having the surgery. I'm going to PM you.
