I am happy to say that I am finally feeling better after being sleeved on May 31st. I had a fair bit of post operative pain, a LOT of nausea, and a ridiculous amount of reflux. Not the smoothest ride, but I think I am finally coming through to the other side.

I think I drank my protein shake too fast this morning though, I could have sworn I experienced dumping syndrome! About 10 minutes into my shake, I got a wild pain in the centre of my chest, terrible nausea, shortness of breath, and felt like I was going to die. I took some Zofran dissolvable, and when the pain would let me I laid down and slept for an hour. Woke up completely symptom free.

Reflux is MUCH better today, for the first time. Yay!

Glad you're feeling better. I'm about 2 weeks ahead of you and can't stress enough the need to eat and drink slowly!
