valkyrea 41 Posted August 27, 2013 Good luck to you guys who underwent surgery today. How are you feeling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rnursewillis 2 Posted August 27, 2013 I'm overly excited and slightly worried... I have 3 children and mostly I am concerned for them (typical Mom right?!?). My husband is supportive but told me to only do it if it is for me and nobody else... The look on his face & the tear in his eyes when he asked my surgeon if I she was sure that I was going to be okay was difficult for me to see... This is about me... I want to be a better wife and Mom that's all that really matter to me... Please just fast forward me to the recovery room! was sleeved on the 19th of august would do it again tomorrow if i knew before what i know now. sending strength, prayers for you and your husband. you will be so glad after it is over with.

MyBigSecret 6 Posted August 27, 2013 Sleeved yesterday! Not too bad... Gas pain is an issue. Could barely find my incisions they are so tiny. Ate a small part of my liquid lunch and was stuffed! Looking forward to tomorrow! 2 valkyrea and Mocha2871 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MyBigSecret 6 Posted August 28, 2013 Slept in recliner last night... Laying flat just didn't work. Tummy is really sore. Trying to get rid of all the fluids they put in through IV at hospital... feeling bloated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kasiesalas 12 Posted August 29, 2013 Slept in recliner last night... Laying flat just didn't work. Tummy is really sore. Trying to get rid of all the fluids they put in through IV at hospital... feeling bloated! Same thing here I came home weighing 7lbs heavier than what I went in. I've never slept on my back but found that laying on my right side with a pillow under my side and one between my legs helped so much. I haven't had anything really to eat just Water and Popsicles. Not hungry. Also know that walking relieved my gas and helped with soreness. 3 days out now I'm finally showing lbs loss on the scale. What I'm having trouble with is the Vitamins how and when to take them. Plus my antidepressant medz can't stand to open" the capsule and taking it with Water Just like that bleh!
