2 days since surgery

i had surgery on friday (10-21) and i thought i was going pretty good. I am having a lot of discomfort after taking small pills. how long will this discomfort last?

Did your doctor okay taking pills? Being that your stomach is so swollen right now from the surgery, your band may be very tight. Therefore your pills wont be able to get through until they're dissolved. So really it depends on the pill. What was it? I hope you feel better! Being "stuck" is a terrible feeling

i have medicine that i have to take on a regular basis and the doctor ok'd them. they said that everything should be smaller than an M&M. i just feel overly tight and lightheaded. i called the dr a little while ago and left a message. thanks for replying. i am only three days out and i am honestly miserable. did you feel this way?

I felt pretty crappy on days 3-4 too. Walking, heating pad on shoulder and hot showers got me through. Hang in there, the worst is almost over!
