4 days post op - can't tolerate anything
byebyefat replied to J170's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was also sleeved on 9/14 and had to stay in the hospital for a extra 2 days because of this same issue, they gave me around the clock iv and Zofran every 4 hours , I came home on Thursday still MISERABLE and had a headache because I still wasn't tolerating nothing, I keep taking the Zofran and on Friday my husband got me some chicken broth from bob Evans (checked with my surgery team first) and it gave me life slowly by Saturday, I literally magically felt better from the Zofran and still sipping on the delicious broth and I hate broth lol now it's sunday I sent him to get me 2 large broth to last me and I haven't had a zofran since yesterday and no pain meds since Friday and I got up for a walk, cooked Breakfast and even went to church, I need a nap but I feel accomplished , but u may need a iv fluids and I hope u feel lots better, hugs How are u feeling today -

How much did you loose at one month, and when was your first stall and how long did it last

I'm day 3 and still in the hospital as well. Congratulations to us both yes big congratulations to us - how are you going with getting enough fluids down? I am due to go home today but haven't been able to get down the required fluids 1.5 litres maybe 200mls if lucky I wasn't able to get the required fluids down either, so they kept me two more days, now I'm at home struggling to get them down

Update : Well yesterday first my sugery got postponed for hours because of a Emergency, then finally it was my turn to get surgery, I was so nervous yet anxious, so I pray and pray and that gave me some comfort then As soon as I got put to sleep, It felt like I opened my eyes and the surgery was over, the pain I was in yesterday was HELL, yup pure HELL , I had 5 kids natural and that pain yesterday was WORST, I couldn't talk, drink or walk, the meds weren't helping but honestly as time passed the easier it got, I was in a 9 in pain after the surgery by evening I was a 4 and this morning , a 2, I been walking and sipping and the dr said , he's going check me his next rounds and if I been drinking my fluids, I will get the ok to leave today, I have no gas pains and I have no regrets and thank you everyone for the prayers and for checking on me , best of luck to everyone and hope everyone has a speedy recovery
