HERnewlife reacted to ewilliams4491 in Two days post op
So I’m two days post-op from my gastric bypass. Still in the hospital because I am not able to hold down more than 3 ounces of liquids. I am able to get up and walk around and there is zero pain from the incision sites (I have 5 of them). The only discomfort I am experiencing is from gas. Just today I was finally able to start passing gas and what a relief it was.

HERnewlife got a reaction from sarhgrif in Paperwork submitted
My doc says it should take 2-3 weeks for approval to come back. Is this a general timeline that they tell everyone or does it usually happen sooner? I’m so excited and anxious

I’m so proud of where I came from. I’ve been so discouraged lately, then I saw this.
