March Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Hey everybody I'm supposed to be going home today I had a pretty rough morning. I had throw up and drain my g tube 3 times i don't know what caused the nausea. I did just take off my anti-nausea patch last night and i'm wondering if i would have been feeling this way every morning. I've got a headache that won't quit. I'm going to take a shower around noon and hopefully my surgeon will release me to go home. I hope you are all doing well.

I was just wondering on average how long it took everyone to have their first bowel movement after surgery?

I had surgery 1 wk ago and still haven't had one. I'm on liquids still. So I'm assuming that's why.

Thinking of you. I am hoping to go home today too. No vomiting just a little nausea. The doc is starting me on clears today. I can wait to drink something besides Water. Lucky you for being able to take a shower I can't wait!

Me too. I guess you are right, it has to be due to the liquids. I guess shouldn't be concerned too much yet as I can pass gas but no real urge for a bm.

Hope today goes better for you. I can say as for the headache (knock on wood) that mine is finally gone. It took 3 days after I left the hospital for it to go away. Hope you start feeling much better, and get to go home :)

I asked my doc how long the surgery was he told me, I asked him how can surgeons stay there for hours operating and not have to take a break he said its like a adrenaline rush he loves it, he said as soon as I scrub out I say wow my back hurts and I really gotta pee, we just died laughing.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
