3 days Post Op Observations

[Mellzbellz21 21]

Hello all! I slept in my own pajamas, in my own bed last night, with my puppy sleeping on the non sore part of my lap! Feeling much better than I was.

I think I've really lucked out so far, no vomiting, no dry heaves. The worst I've dealt with is the post op gas that's slowly dissipating through my body, and oddly enough it's given me a few accidents.

How are you guys all doing?

I'm four days post-op. I feel pretty good! From time to time, I feel a little tenderness in the port area. But, I really can't complain about anything. I miss my puppies. I have two dogs that are currently in a kennel, 8 year old Huey and 2 year old Chica. I really want to bring them home now. But, Chica is very hyper and I'm afraid of her jumping. I'm trying to wait, at least until tomorrow or Monday. It's hard. It's so quiet here....

You will feel better and better each day! I am a little over 2 weeks post op and I am feeling back to normal. Port site isn't sore anymore...gas went away.....and eating "mushy food".

I am so glad you all are feeling good!

I was really worried about my dog jumping too but she's been so gentle with me, I swear she knows i just had surgery

I was banded Thursday morning (2/21) and I am already feeling 100% better. Still really have no desire to eat at all. I have eaten twice, sugar-free pudding with a few spoons of Protein powder mixed in. Other than that it has been Water or apple juice. I am thinking today I will have some broth & maybe some Protein pudding again.

I could not sleep at all Thursday night from the pain & discomfort. Did take a nice walk yesterday & last night I slept great. I am ready to get out of the house today.

I had a lot of trouble sleeping while I was in the hospital, just couldn't get comfortable. All the body gas would just sneak up on me lol but walking helped with that a lot

I was banded on Thursday and feel much better this morning than yesterday. I also slept much better last night! I washed myself up this morning and I get to shower tomorrow, looking forward to that! I am so ready for these gas pains to work their way through me as they are the only thing causing me discomfort. I have been walking lots and stretching, so hopefully soon! I am glad everyone is doing well!

I plan to pick up Huey and Chica tomorrow. I know Huey will be gentle. I'm hoping Chica will follow his lead.
