Post op in the hospital
melbell2222 replied to Marissa.Ann.C's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I took my pain med ( liquid) for two days after I came home. I stayed for two days, walked a lot, never did a swallow test unless they did it when I was in recovery. I don't remember anything from when I was put to sleep till I woke up in my room. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Canceled surgery
melbell2222 replied to sleeveMEinchicaGO's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was in a pre-op class the last one before surgery and a woman there was like where do I go to cancel my surgery.. We were like Huhhhh! But her and her sisters get together around Memorial Day few days before she would have had the surgery and she said they were not a fan of her getting it anyways.... So you really have to have the mind set to get through it all and pass the tunnel to a new light! Hope all goes well with your journey:) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
