Post op pain-Surgery Aug. 16



Recommended Posts

-Thank you everyone for your input, advise and support!! I have my follow-up appointment on Tuesday and regardless if my pain is still there I am going to ask the Doctor what it is from. I will post then and let you know. When taking a deep breathe the pain can be very intense. I am sure most of you can agree, that as long as it isn't anything serious, the pain that we are experiencing from surgery doesn't even compare to the inner pain we've put myself through (not to mention physical well-being) living over weight. Thank you all very much.

I am amazed at how many people (like me) reported back pain. Im day 3 and feeling actually pretty good. Ive been light grocery shopping already. Walking makes me feel better. Im on Clear liquids till tomorrow and I feel pretty good. I am sore and uncomfortable but I've had a c-section so........... this is nothing in comparison. With C-section I could not get up and down with out help. My back is not per say in "pain" i just feel like I need to pop it or bend forward more than my soreness allows. My body is tense so I am sure this is the problem.

I feel good so fare !! Im excited !

      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.
