I just had surgery yesterday. Already at home but i am having a really hard time peeing! Has anyone else experienced this? I feel like I need to go get a catheter if it doesn't improve

They had to straight cath me the day of surgery because I didn't have the urge to pee after that I would go to the bathroom and sit and was able to pee but still didn't feel an urge until the following day

I was concerned about this and the nurse told me it wasn't that uncommon for this to happen

I was the same way on May 3rd. Yes it does get better. I had to stay in the hospital two nights. I felt horrible the first day. I was getting sick too but my doc gave me something to help the nausea. In am almost at week 4 and 40 lbs down since surgery. I was sad at first because I was in pain. However, by the second day, the tech had a hard time keeping up with me down the hallways because my doc wanted me to walk. I ride a bicycle for the first time in 15 years on yesterday. Just to do that again it was well worth the pain.

Cannot drink regular Water it feels awful! Prior to surgery I regularly drank 8-10 glasses! I miss it so.

I have the same problem. I'm post op day 6. I hope I'm able to drink it again soon.

I'm nearly 4 weeks post op and on soft food. I have been having a lot of trouble with nausea. I spoke to my surgeon about it and he said it was due to acid in my stomach. I'm on nexium for this but I'm allowed to use gaviscon before each meal to help with this. And I'm happy to say it has!! Finally! Sorry I'm a little excited!

I just are some tuna and crackers and felt fine! And, the best part about it was there was 15g of Protein in it!

Hi Staci i had mine done may 28 too! Im at my house now, but the pain is pretty bad!!! Im sipping sipping sipping and resting. I feel the same pain u feel the upper rib cage towards my heart!! My dr said it was because I m drinkin too fast

[Staci27 31]

It was hurting before I even started drinking.. my nurses and p.a. said that is where they fixed a hernia.. but I think that I am drinking too fast.. its hard to get use to.. so when weighing in the day of surgery I weighed 241 and now I am 230.. I like seeing that.
