Kathy Pitcher 102 Posted March 21, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shanny 3 Posted March 21, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

godinez831 20 Posted March 21, 2013 I had surgery 1 wk ago and still haven't had one. I'm on liquids still. So I'm assuming that's why. 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 HW 227, SW 214, CW 222 - Loss To Date 13lb - Surgery RNY 3/14/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
