Newly Sleeved with Questions???
I am 7 days out and need advise. I am still experiencing weird symptoms and am not sure if this is the norm. First, my teeth are really sore and my tongue has a white film on it. I have been getting close to 64 ounces of water in, not as well on my protein, so I do not believe I am dehydrated. Everytime I sip, I get this sharp pain for a 5 sec period and it goes away. My back is sore & I stlll have to take the Vicotin at lease 2x a day. I see the Doc on Tuesday but was hoping for some insight please, I just want to feel normal again. I still have the drain, Does this make a difference on my pain or healing?

Good luck to you. I will be watching your post today to see if I can find out why my back is so sore.
I had difficulties with cold fluids. I would get the same discomfort, shooting pain if I tried to sip cold liquids. So, I did room temperature for water/crystal light, and warm fluids such as teas were so much easier to tolerate. I didn't have the back pain that I can remember. I didn't have a drain initially so I can't comment on that experience either.
