Well I read books and been on this board a lot.  Boy. I was expecting this  much pain.  I also kept bleeding from one mu incisions. Like gush blood. Dr came and sewed it up.  Now my blood is low and may have to have some today.  I don't regret thi but ready to move past this stage.2nd sentence should say not expecting 

Aww sorry to hear about that. Thats just something you cant anticipate. It will get better and will be worth it!!!!

 So sorry to hear this. I came home late yesterday and got a great night of sleep. Now today I can't get comfortable. I am trying to sip, sip , sip but my little sleeve is not liking it. Been walking around the house just don't have the energy to go for longer walks. I keep burping. I know it will get better for us. I hope to hear you are out of the hospital and home soon. 

I'm still in the hospital too. my surgery was Monday as well. I chose to stay another day. Wasn't ready to go home yet. The gas pains are horrible! Sorry about your incision! Ouch! My doctor uses the spyder tool on me so I only have one in my belly button, and a small one where they repaired my hernia.

It does get better!! Just hang in there. The first 2 days for me after surgery I felt like I wanted to die I was in so much pain. The gas would not pass. But after that, I was amazed and how much better I felt every day. Congratulations!

I got released this morning after Monday's surgery. I hope you start to feel better soon. I swear the walking is a life saver. It will be exhausting and achy at first but it is well worth it to get the gas rolling out.

 Things will get better :-) ill keep u in my prayers. I was also sleeved Monday. They sent me home yesterday around 630pm. I'm sore upon getting up out bed chairs, but other than that, not much pain. I'm sip sip sipping all day. N am also burping a lot. 

 Sending hugs to you! Keep us updated!

 Wow I was really drugged up when I typed that .  I got 2 units of blood.  I fee better. Only on pain when I get up or down.  My chest  is very sore and hard to take deep breaths.  Think this is due to the hernia repair that was on my diaphragm .
