Just got banded and Im on Day 4 feeling sick



Recommended Posts

I've managed to get down a few ounces over the last 4 days but nothing more. Food(or should i say Protein Shakes and broth) isnt appealing and the smell of any food makes me want to get sick. When I breathe in every once in awhile I'm sore-is that normal?? So I've been in bed and on my pain meds for 4 days..I just want to cry!:smile:

Day 4 was the day I got out of bed and started walking. That act alone made me feel so much better. It helps with the gas, the pain and the bloating.

food, liquid or not, will be better in just a few days. But for now, walk, walk and walk... and drink lots of Water.

Good Luck...

TJ

I am four days post op also!!! and i have one spot on my left side where if i breath in deep or roll just right to get up.. it is KILLER pain.. like i can feel something moving.. or rubbing against my ribs i also still have some gas pains under my diaphram that i can feel all the way up to my collar bone.. I think it will go away eventually.. maybe not as soon as we would like BUT it will. I have been up and about since surgery (even got shopping done day after christmas). And that has helped a lot.. I would say to try keeping up with the walking and see if that helps.. i'll keep ya posted as to what i am doing too.. sounds like the same pain almost.. TAKE CARE!!! DECEMBER DELIGHTS!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
