update surgery day 2 mamamckinzie



Recommended Posts

everything is still going peachy. very little pain due to good control from meds.:P Still having a bit of trouble with low heartrate and goofy blood pressure but other than that it has been very smooth. Waiting for my turn for the swallow test. They have a few vascular patients that must go first. That's fine...I am enjoying my stay. Nice room..small but efficient. nice furniture and wall colors. Staff is amazing...so is doctor.:D Gone for several walks. Will have drain removed upon discharge!! All in all it has been a great experience! How is everyone else doing this morning?

thanks everyone! could not have done it without y'all :lol: We got home 2 1/2 hours ago. Took liquid lortab after getting home and then slept a couple of hours. Now I am resting and eating sf popsicles. In a few minutes I will get up and walk for a little bit...cough, and do the breathing thingy. A bit more pain now that i am home and no pain pump. But it really is just soreness not bad pain.. about a 3 from a scale of 1-10. Left shoulder has been off and on pain wise. Tummy sore of course but really it is not bad at all. Shoulder surgery was far more painful :huh:

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
