Hi all i am 3days post op today and so far i have been ok. I have learned to stay ontop of my pain meds so thati dont have too much pain. I havent passed gas as yet but im hoping that will come soon. I have been walking and sipping and i am able to eat soft foods such as eggs, chicken, tuna the only thing i could eat was egg and tuna and i tried this dry turkey they gave me at the hospital(ewwww) i cant wait to feel normal again. How is everyone else doing today?

I'm still bleeding not sure where its coming from and there giving me blood

Did you have a lapband to RNY revision? Just wondering because I did on 2/19/13. Dr said there was a ton of scar tissue around my port and some of it had to be left. In recovery I had developed bleeding under the port. Had to go back to OR to stop bleeding. Since then recovery has been good. I'm thinking of you. Keep us posted and good luck!

My RNY was on Wednesday- I'm post-OP!!

In the hospital until tomorrow. I started Clear Liquids today! I've been walking as much as I can without falling to sleep. And I've farted today!! Wahoo!

Looking forward to being home in my own bed to snuggle my husband!

Being back in your own bed is an amazing feeling! (Though I do wish my bed were adjustable like the hospital beds are... it would make reading in bed so much easier)

Well I'm back in the hospital my stomach started hurting really bad last night I thought it was gas but my stomach hurt. To touch it took my liquid. Loritab but it didn't help when I woke up this morning it hurt to walk or touch my stomach so rhe did another leak test. It was ok but they said I had Fluid and blood in my stomach and my blood count was low so there watching my blood count to see if they have. To give me blood. This is getting sceary it just hurts to move

I'm glad you got to see your doctor and that they have admitted you. You are in good care now! Try to rest and know we're thinking about you!

Went to the hospital ER last night because the pain was unbearable, they didn't do anything but and electrolight test, but they did give me a prescription for dilodid so I am managing a bit better today. Hope everyone is doing better

I went to the store with my husband after we left the hospital. We grocery shopped! I got juice, and broth. He bought everything under the sun, ribs, pork steaks, bacon, sausage, meat meat meat and the entire time I was thinking how gross it all looked and sounded!! At least our fridge and pantry is stocked!! AND I'm thankful he will be cooking this next week for everyone!
