Sleeved 9/4 Im In Pain



Recommended Posts

I'm glad you are feeling a bit better! And hopefully your hubby is as well :) I also had to try a new med for nausea because zolfram just was not working. I've been feeling pretty good still. Some soreness at incision sites, though. I'm so ready for purée!

I think Tuesday was the day for issues because, I got stuck back in the hospital for blood clot and pnemonia issues. I may get out tomorrow.

I'm feeling more like a human today! I have passed a decent amount of gas. My incisions have just been hurting like crazy' date=' but are starting to feel better today. I decided to wear one of my compression shirts and that is helping a bit also. I was just so nauseous. And the meds for that don't work for me apparently. They had to alternate 3 different ones in the hospital. I build up a tolerance for things very quickly. Luckily my husband has been my rock through all of this! He is better to me than I could have ever have asked for. Thank you for all your help and support.[/quote']

Glad you are feeling better! I have been slowly getting better also. I may actually sleep in a regular bed tonight instead of a recliner. I hope so anyways. :) Where did you get a compression shirt? That could help me bc my tummy is so swollen and sore. It is awful. I'm definitely ready to be able to do something besides sit in this house. I'd be happy to go grocery shopping for food I can't eat at this point. haha

If you are looking for additional tummy support try a Belly Band that mom's use after having a baby. You can find them in the maternity sections of Target sometimes...As a nurse we use them for our c section mom's and they say they really work

I hear ya! I've bought so much useless stuff because I needed to get out of the house. I've been to the Mall and TJ Maxx and I just make sure I have a cart and go slow. I don't have much soreness, but I'm still thinking about one of those compression bands too.

My dr always sent me home with a binder.. I felt no pain after lap band or the lap band removal..i think bc of the binder!!! Keeps everything tight! I have my revision on 9/17 and I'm bringing my old binder just in case something changed!!!

Hope you are feeling bettere.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
