4 days post op
BeautyIncurls replied to BeautyIncurls's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks. I will definitely try changing positions, hopefully it works. I can't afford to go to the emergency room. Thanks for the advice. -
I know I'm in the healing stage but I can't tell if the pain in my stomach is gas pain or regular pains. I still have that drainage tube in my stomach. It makes very hard for me to get comfortable. I have to sleep on my back which is even more uncomfortable. Any ideas or suggestions on how to get comfortable and deal with the pain? Pain med is 2mg, doesnt feel like it's working.

Thanks. Feeling fine for the most part. Trying to walk as much as I can around the house. Trying to remember to drink slowly. -

Thanks!! Surgery went well. Trying to deal with this pain is another thing. But I'm ready to change my life. Hopefully in the next few days I wont feel any pain. -

Good Morning. Today is surgery day!! I should be asleep but made the mistake of taking a nap earlier lol. Family and friends are more nervous than I am. I'm ready. I feel with everything in me, that this is the best thing for me. -
Thanks!! Same to you!

Surgery scheduled for Feb. 4th. Started my pre-op diet on Saturday. Its consists of a protein bar or shake for breakfast and lunch, mid morning, afternoon and evening snacks of small piece of fruit or half a cup and 3 oz of lean meat, salad, 6 unsalted crackers, and a small piece of fruit for dinner. I'm very hungry!! My potassium and iron were low, so I'm on supplements. Hopefully I won't have to reschedule my surgery.

Thanks.

Got my approval for Bypass on 12-30-2013. I meet with the surgeon on the 22nd. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I've been a little overwhelmed trying to get everything I need. So glad I found this forum!!
