tubes after surgery

[pom mom 0]

What tubes did you have after surgery? Catheter? NG tube? JP drain?

I had foley catheter, drain tube and IV for fluids. Was no big deal at all and I am super queasy with tubes, needles etc.

Surgery was on Wednesday

Foley and IV came out on Friday and JP came out on Saturday (would of come out on Friday, but a cardiologist wanted me to stay one extra night~grrrrrrrrr)

The nurse told me some patients say it sort of burns coming out. All I felt was almost like a tickle in my left shoulder (JP drain was on my right)?? Hubby couldn't believe how looooooooooong it was. Did not hurt a bit.

The nurse told me after she took the Foley out that I may have burning the first time I peed...NOPE. She said we give you 8 hours to go, but I was in there peeing like a race horse in about an hour.

IV and a drain. No catheter for me.

Hello Pom Mom;

No tubes, no drains, no pain pump, no catheter, IV only during surgery & PostOp recovery. Hit surgeons goal in less than 5 months, hope to hit my goal (10 lbs less) by end of this month. PS - I was an outpatient too. Love my sleeve & surgeon.
