At this juncture it may be wise to request/demand that you stay in the hospital till this is resolved.

It's quite clear that there is still some sort of leak and you want to be able stop/treat any signs of infection (rise in temperature) quickly and aggressively to avoid going septic.

TPN, drains and time may be the solution.

Hang in there.

I agree with this. Burning sensations are NOT normal. Tenderness at incision sites, yes..but Katie has burning..and blood clots and leaking bile still. Very concerning.

Gosh, ridiculous! But this too shall pass. So sorry you got off to such a crappy start. This probably means you will be an extreme success with you sleeve. Meanwhile please listen to Frisco's advice!

You are in my prayers & good thoughts.

All best, Layla
